    Good choices MissB but I still call it a foul. Per YOUR original post, It was set to close on June 17th not the 16th. headscratch.gif

    Here is a quote from the original post:

    Dgrin mini-challenge #77: Welcome to Round #77 of the Dgrin mini-Challenges. This challenge is open to any Dgrin member. It will run from Sunday, May 31, 08:00am, EST time (GMT -5) to June 17th, 08:00am, EST time (GMT -5).

    The topic ready for your interpretation: Reflections & Refractions

    I spent alot of time this week at the beach and in the Carolina swamps admiring natures best examples of reflection and refraction. When I came back and found out that my photo of the reflection in my grandfather's sunglasses won the last mini challenge... I thought this was best suited for the next contest.

    Your Judges:
    MissB ...(winner of #76 and still amazed that I actually won a contest!)

    Congrats to the winners.

    Even if it finished a day ahead of time, it shouldn't be a big thing.
    No prizes are awarded, no names will be put on the cup, no cash will exchange hands.
    The worst thing that can happen is you got out and practiced your art and maybe your PS skills,
    and ended up with a good shot that you may treasure.

    These challenges are a good example that coming in second can be a good thing.mwink.gif
