I'm afraid I broke the picking a winner function by deleting the post after choosing the wrong photo by mistake.
Is there some way to get an admin to step in and reset / use the information below?
Sorry for the inconvenience!

Hello there,
Thank you for all the submissions. It's been hard to judge - and I've had to spend a bit of time understanding some of the photos relation to the topic - objects.
Third:
First time I see a bud of a magnolia tree. Nice warm colurs and organic textures.

Second:
A mighty fine composition - love it's taken with a Nikon D1x. Still wondering what the 'metallic arc' actually is.

First:
Calm, crisp & well layered. I consider the branches/driftwood in the centre of the photo an object of a sort.

Wishing you all a very nice weekend,
Kasper
