Gubbs' great long exposure shot of the Marloes Sands made the Fred Miranda Monthly Assignment finals! There is some really tough competition over there, some really wonderful other shots, but IMO Gubbs has a real chance to win. Anyone, even Fred Miranda himself, would be proud to have taken this picture.

    Great stuff Gubbs,

    You are way ahead over there and I helped you stay there. You are up against some tuff competition too, some very nice shots but I liked yours the best.

    good luck.

    I knew, of course, that trees and plants had roots, stems, bark, branches and foliage that reached up toward the light. But I was coming to realize that the real magician was light itself.

    Thanks, Andy. I tripped at first over your typo and though you "deinserted" the picture. My post is vastly enhanced by the insertion of Gubb's very enviable image.

    How great is that? Dave (dkapp) Kapp, won a month (or two) ago. So we might be starting to flex our muscles there as well.

    Maybe I can even make the finals there someday.

    Rutt, you are starting to sound like me. And I know I won here twice, but not with this type of competition, I think it is getting tougher.

    At least you are plugging away up there.

    I sound like a broken record re KPOTD, which you have gotten. I haven't entered in months, but I still mention that I don't have one. Today I told my son to have his baby, my grandson, do something cute and I would........
    My son e-mailed back, that his son was cute to him and that was all that mattered. I thought, no, not for this, one has to be cute and do cute. I did not say that.

    Anyway, Gubbs, I remember those photos well! And I remember then wondering about ND filters.

    YOu did great photos there, and I still don't know which one was the winner, they are all so good, and I do need to look and find out..............which is best.rolleyes1.gif .

    Congratulations big time!

    After all is said and done, it is the sweet tea.
