(2,603 posts)Reflections on pier 17 got my vote, but Fresnel was a very close second for me.
All of them were great shots though. Excellent work everyone!

(4,359 posts)I always check out the theme, but end up choosing my picture by thinking, "Which one would I hang up in my house?" Then I end up staring at each picture to think of where it would go, why I'd want to keep looking at it, etc. Sometimes I end up picking a picture for reasons unknown or because something really jumps out at me. I chose "Grounded", oddly enough, because the sky just spoke to me. I stared at it for a while and I just wanted to be under that sky. Great photos everyone! Whover took "grounded"--thank you for that beautiful sky!
