Winners....Weekly Challenge 157 - Extreme Weather
Posted By: casil403, 01-25-2011, 05:29 PM

Wow you bunch certainly did not make this easy. Thanks for all the terriffic entries and here are my selections:

Honourable mentions:
Bramela: Holy red sky! Bonus points for taking the camera out in that!

Nomad: Your image gives me shivers just looking at it!


3rd:
JeffJS:
Your poor best buddy looks so unhappy to be out in that snow...I feel for him in a big way!


2nd:
Ash:

Wowzers! That is some flooding. Love the "Water on Road" sign...nothing like stating the obvious!


1st
RollsUp:
Quite the extreme white out conditions you captured! I like the poor soul running in the background trying to get out of it!


Congrats to everyone and thanks for playing. RollsUp you get to pick the next theme and judge it.

Congrats everyone and Thank you Lisa. Both for hosting and the 3rd place mention. He Was pretty miserable I think as I made him sit there while I tried to snap a photo of him. He got treats when we came in out of the weather though so it's all good. He forgives my cruelty quite easily when something is put in his belly.

Hope the new career is going good for you..

Great images everyone! Thanks casil403. I'll see what I can think of and post it later if my Internet connection doesn't crap out, some more extreme weather going on out there again.
FYI The poor soul was walking against the wind.

Congratulations to all the winners, Rollsup, I've been that guy fighting the wind out there, I can feel it from your photo, great job. Ash, nice job covering the flood, we've had some bad floods near here in the last couple of years, the destruction water can bring is devastating. Jeff, dogs are just the most loyal friends you can ever have, nice shot. Lisa great job on picking the winners!

Great job judging this tough one, Lisa -- a GREAT subject! Congrats RollsUp, Ash, Jeff, Noman and Bruce -- all well deserved. RollsUp, your picture reminds me of those prairie stories of farmers lost in blizzards because they didn't have a rope tied between the barn and the house. Whiteout!
