    Oh my.... wow! Thanks so much everyone! I honestly had written this one off as one of those, "I am proud of mine, but it will never place" after seeing some of the amazing shots this round. To be in such a crowd of winners... I'm speechless. And three ties for the first three spots??? That is wild!

    Congratulations to Aaron and the top finishers. I think I picked a great challenge to start with. I have a way to go, but it was fun.

    Thank you for the complements, Aaron. I count myself fortunate to have been considered in the top 5, but to have been briefly tied for first was amazing. I really liked your out of the box interpretation of this challenge. For me, this is all about learning the craft, and my lesson in this round is to work on telling stories and eliciting emotions in the viewer. Your photo did both and was flawlessly executed.
