    Congratulations! Very well deserved.

    This is still one of my favorite shots from the entire competition. (From SF #1) The Final entry somehow matched that perfectly.

    Nicely pointed out, it's been interesting to see Vandana's awesome style really develop and become her signature. nod.gif


    It's also a great example that sticking to what your good at can indeed bring rewards.

    Thanks to our title sponsor, SmugMug!
    I imagine lots of new folks, lurkers will be reading this... so I have to mention that for her win, Vandana gets $7500(usd) in cold hard cash, and a lifetime Pro SmugMug account. Not bad, eh?

    Big thank you to the SmugMug family for sponsoring this contest. thumb.gif

    Congratulations Vandana
    Let me join the well wishers...congratulations Vandana for you LPS win. Were it not for your entry, it might have been a close race between two or three of the others.
    Remember, no one may want you to take pictures, but they all want to see them.
