Weekly Challenge#39 - Winners
Posted By: LaRee, 12-09-2007, 08:53 PM

Narrowing the photos down was a VERY difficult task for me. Some will inevitably say I didn't widdle it down enough. Oh well, what do you want for free? ;-p Or, if you prefer fire me. I really enjoyed viewing all of the submission in this challenge. Thank you all so much for contributing! There were a lot of entries into this challenge so I took the liberty of picking by top 8 entries. Hey, I still had to whittle down 3/4 of the entries. It was hard! We had a nice round number of 34 entries. Good work ALL! Now, on to my personal challenge, here we go...

This image is very well done khardur. Beautiful work with the 43ltd Dan.


Bramela's golden lilly caught my eye. Bruce you have a striking, yet softly seductive image.


I love this bit of Christmas that Fritz submitted. Cozy warm image, it feels good.


Bud's white flowers against that blue background make an excellent image. Good composition and exposure on this one Bud.


What can I say but Yeowza Tim. What color! You even have some water drops going on there for even more interest.


Finn this image is priceless!


I had a heck of a time with a toss up between these next two images. I knew one had to be the *winner* but dang it could have been a flipped coin!

Chris, I love this. It is just flat out captivating to me.


The patience, talent and perseverance it takes for a shot like this one has to be held up high. Mighty fine image fletcherkane. So this baton is now officially handed over to you!

Thanks for the mention LaRee, and congrats to the winners! Very well thought out choices. I didn't envy you having to narrow the entries down.

Thanks LaRee for giving me a mention. Feels pretty satisfying among that standard of photograaphy. Some truly great shots there, and all deserve congratulations.
The winner, IMHO you were spot on. Brilliant shot.

Well done all a tough one to judge. I am not bitter at all about not being chosen , nope not at all (I would agree with the judge's decesion - I made top 40 so I am good )

Bramela - that shot is spectacular. - so are all the others, including the winner, but that shot is gorgeous.

Excellent choices, Laree and I agree, coin flip between the top two! That spider shot is sooo cool and the fish is just awesome!
