I was out of town this week end but I have some time to figure it out this week so I'll be ready when it's time to run it. I'm sure I'll be needing help.

Thank you!

That was a great contest. Your photo was breathtaking. It was a formidable competitor.

CurtEastPoint, your theme was a good choice, and brought so many fine shots. And you were a great host, keeping us informed all the way to the end. Thanks.

I was hooked by the theme.

It was fun, I like close competition.

Now I'll be day dreaming about a theme for a couple days...

I knew when I saw them submitted they'd be winners!

Congratulations, 2naSalit and Curmudgeoness!



Thanks, CurtEastPoint, for the theme that brought out so many wonderful photos!

A lot of us had a good chuckle and really enjoyed Left Behind by Johnny Noshoes, even though it didn't make the finals!
