Butchart Gardens in Victoria, BC. It had been on my "bucket list" for years and finally got to go
in August 2016. We were there at dusk in order to see the fireworks show later in the evening.

All three of the winning photos are really about being at the right place at the right time to capture a particular moment--whether
it's action or lighting or something else--that will be different in a moment's time.
