I confess to not voting in the last round. Kept going back and forth, back and forth among many and couldn't commit. I have never done that before.

Congratulations to all the wonderful photographers!

to every single one of us. We pulled off a great contest again.
I did not expect to do this well in it. I'm surprised. Thank you for your votes.

And thank you justiceischeap for a perfectly executed contest.

Thanks for a great contest, justiceischeap, and congrats to JDB, rdking and Mira.

My photo was taken in Nome in March 2010. The derelict boat in the foreground on the right is no longer there. A pity, since I thought it was kind of picturesque.

it's been a very long day but I want to take the time to thank everyone that voted for me and I never thought that I can actually win something like this with just a spur of the moment shot

Thank you again
