Apology for lateness: Sorry, I thought I had done this, but nothing has shown up.
Admission: Judging was quite subjective, based on to what extent the response "Wow! I wish I had taken that" was evoked. The top three and the three HMs were shuffled around a bit.
Honourable mentions to two of Gill Kopy's entries and to Hugh's:



Third place to Ken Zaret's wonderfully timed wave, with the birds all in exactly the right place:

Second place to Peter Schmidt's place, which had me driving around that island with Google Earth street view looking for the location:

First place to Vijay Nanda's dreamy beach scene, because I absolutely loved it:

Great Paul :) I know this page does weird things some times. Congrats to Vijay and other winners - and thanks for the two HM's :) I liked the topic.

Hi Everybody,

Great contest! I loved the topic and the entries.

Vijay has let me know that he will not be able to host the next competition. So, I have updated the system so that the second place winner, Arnie Peterschmidt, can host it instead. Let me know if you need anything.

Thanks,
Emily

Thanks for the first place! It was a great topic with so many beautiful pics. Congratulations to all the winners.
Regretfully it is not a good week for me to run the contest.

Thanks for the HM. Congratulations to all winners and contestants! Great topic. I especially liked how the focus was on integration of the object into the image and not on the object itself.
