1. Thanks for your work Itchinjim! Soon you can pass it on and rest :) N/T

[Cassandra]

2. I feel honored...

to have just squeaked into the finals amidst so many beautiful shots.

[Mira]

3. I think your photo is so wonderful, sometimes I checked in not so much to see how mine is faring,

but just to see yours again.
That is true for others as well, but I think yours sings, balances and is a memorable joy to behold.

[Cassandra]

5. Thank you!

The columbines were really prolific this year. I was glad to be able to capture a shot which gets the multiple angles that make that flower so interesting.

Your bird feeder is so much fun that I expect we'll have years of wonderful pictures featuring it.

[Mira]

11. Thanks. I really like it, and so do the critters and the neighbors. N/T

10. Mira's right.

Yours is a lovely shot. Mine is totally luck. I'm nothing but an accidental photographer, I just point, click and hope for the best. I couldn't have done what you did to achieve yours. :hi:

15. The columbine photo shows so much talent

I struggled between that and yours, but in the end went with the columbines because there was just so much to the photo. The beautiful green color contrasted perfectly with the pink, the delicacy, the composition, it is just a spectacular photo. But it was tough to choose.

[Cassandra]

22. Thank you so much.

I find the feedback as rewarding as the votes, if not more so.

4. YAY

I made it to the finals :woohoo:

Thanks for the great idea Itchinjim!! :thumbsup:

6. holy crap

that little peep is winning at the moment.

[Mira]

7. I know - I've been watching him creep up, and imagined

just how this shot was made. Would you know how?

[jhain]

8. well, yeah.........

it is mine. ;-)

I raise chickens- and take MANY photos during a peep's first days. One has to be F*A*S*T- they are like little rockets! This baby was placed in the newly sown lettuce patch- I think it is actually a macro shot........
It is a good one!- one of the few I have printed during the last few weeks. But, geez........was surprised to see it winning.

[hippywife]

9. It is soooo cute!

We have chickens, too, and I love them when they are tiny like that. They're so much fun. :hi:

[regnaD kciN]

12. Bloody typical...

I take a classic photo of a flower, and it gets beaten by a picture of some hot chick. (At least I assume it was hot -- it looks pretty sunny in that picture.)

:rofl:

[jhain]

13. heee heee heee

if I actually do win again with another animal shot all hell will break loose here!

[Mira]

14. What was the other one? If you jog my memory, and if I was around, I'll remember.

Now I'll go look how much ahead you are now.

[jhain]

17. silhouettes

this one:

[Mira]

18. AHHH. Precious. Never saw it before, was before my time. Should you win with

the soft and cuddly critter, you'll already know how to run the contest.

:)

[jhain]

23. noooooooooooooooooooooooooo

this computer is on its death bed..........

[regnaD kciN]

19. Considering that your major competitors are a dog and a turtle...

...I doubt there'd be much cause for complaint.

If the standings remain as they are, I'm going to declare my entry the winner of the Non-Animal Division. :evilgrin:

[Tindalos]

16. GD has a one track mind

Did you really think we stood a chance against cute critters?

:shrug:


----------------------------

[Mira]

20. I for one like your feather better than my own critter

:rofl:

[Mira]

21. I for one like your feather better than my own critter

:rofl:

[jhain]

24. As of this moment...

"Slow & Steady Wins The Race."

[hippywife]

25. Still not a foregone conclusion.

Could go any way at this point. It's definitely a nail-biter, tho. :rofl:

When it says the contest ends at 5:00 is that local time so it will be 5:00 in all time zones?

:hi:
