Hi, first I'd like to thank everyone who participated. Really nice entries and hard to pick just a few.

I liked them all and I think to mention first some that particularly attracted my eye, by their expressivity, post processing, composition or uniqueness, so I made a new category before the mentions and the winners

I. 10 Top coolest to me, in the order they appear in the contest:
