*November Photo Contest Winners*

Thank you all for voting in the November Photo Contest. All of the participants always appreciate your votes and comments on their photographs!
In a close contest, Callalily's "Fall Rowing" was the victor, with Mira's "Yesterday's walk near Old Salem" was a super-close second. Alfredo's "Young Man At Lexington, Ky Thriller Parade" edged out Flotsam's "Buffet at the Boat Launch" (Host favorite on account of the birds) for third place.

Thanks to the participants and to all of you who voted and commented. Cheers.

The huge Kayak is a dream. Love the photo a whole great big lot as well.
The portrait of the young Kentuckian is arresting, not only in its beauty but also in his. It is an unforgettable photograph. I am crazy about it.

It's one of my summer pastimes. I row in a "four", type of boat that's in the photo, and "eight" with naturally 8 rowers and a double, two rowers (no coxswain)!

Your photo was awesome as were all the others.

I have an inflatable kayak in a portable box. I love being on the water. Congratulations on your win, looking forward to you doing the January contest.

and all the finalists.

There were some really outstanding shots in the contest this month!

Callalily, will have the honor of hosting January, since December will be devoted to the Autumn Seasonal contest.

As usual, there was a great grouping of photos. It's always difficult to choose who to vote for.

And sending congratulations to all of the other entrants.
