What a job the moderators do week after week selecting images from the talent pool here, I'm sure that the yearly picks are agonizing!
These picks this year are truly remarkable, and supremely represent the finest of the fine photography we see here daily. Congrats to the winners, and thanks to the fine people who post and critique here!
Great stuff, all the way around. Congrats to all who had images selected!

Congratulations to everyone! Not only are the winner's well deserved, but kudos to all who participate in this fine community. The photography is some of the best seen anywhere on the web - and just as important.... are the wonderful people of NPN. This is a family of photographers and I for one am glad to be associated with all of you.
Congrats and looking forward to a fantastic 2008!

I often look through the galleries at all the immense talent and wonder what I'm even doing in this company. It's great company to be in. Congrats, everyone, for being who you are, and the best of Happy New Years to you all.

Hi All
What a pleasant surprise when Tom Wylie telephoned me last night to say I had been picked as the winner of the Avian section of the 2007 Annual EPs. I consider it a great honour to be picked from the many thousands of outstanding images we all enjoy on the forum each year and thank you all for your encouraging and often helpful comments.
I have not been very active on the forum of late due to pressure of work including getting a new website on line. However I hope to be back posting and commenting on the Avian forum soon!
Amazing photography... congratulations to all the winners.
Posted by Michael Lowe on January 1, 2008 at 12:06 PM
Congrats to all for their well- deserved picks. It is an extreme honor to be considered worthy of a EP. It would not be possible without the inspiration of viewing all the fine images and all the honest critiques and helpful tips from the great group of photographers here on NPN.
Posted by Janet Bentley on January 1, 2008 at 2:08 PM
Congratulations to these outstanding '07 winners!
I often jump in when I have just a few minutes and do the silent lurk - not taking time to comment on the super photos submitted because I'm in a hurry. I'm glad I'm not trying to make the choices because sometimes arriving at a decision would be a very difficult task. Good job on our editors part as well.
It is a very special honor to be included in the Editor awards for 2007, especially among such great photographers. I wish to thank all of you for the critiques and inspiration I have received on this wonderful site. I have learned more in the last two years than in the previous ten!
My most heartfelt congratulations to this year's winners!

For me it's a great honor to be in the EP. It's a huge honor to be in the 2007 Annual EP.
Thank you all for being an inspiration and thank you for all those critical comments. NPN is the best community to learn and to enjoy. Special thanks to the UKNP.
A big congrats to all the winners of this year and a very happy New Year.
Back in NPN from holidays I found a beautiful Christmas present! I am very surprised. I would have never thouth to receive the annual EP honestly. I always see so beautiful photos here. The award must be shared with all of you. Your beautiful pictures always improve and inspire me. Thanks very much for that. Happy and serene 2008.
Here's to all the winner's
And of course all the EP during the year
I have seen some really amazing photograph's and I am sure that not only to me but a lot of others out there its inspiring and makes a person want to strive to do better and to improve himself.
Again well done all of you

What a great honor to be selected as a runner up in the 2007 EP awards. Came back from visiting Canada for the holidays to this very pleasant surprise. Thanks to all involved and sincere congratulations to all the other EP winners of the annual contest and throughout the year.
I'm also honored to be included among the winners this year. As I write this I'm sitting in front of the one room library in Portal, Arizona (the only wireless in town!) after another day of bird searching. It's about 25 degrees out. The birds are here somewhere.....and I could really use the hat right now. Thanks for having me, and what a great group of folks to know.

Hello,
I just found out about this today (January 2nd) - nice surprise! Heck, I didn't even know there WAS an annual EP, so winning one of the categories is a totally unexpected bonus!
Thanks to NPN and all the wonderful photographers in ALL the categories. I've thoroughly enjoyed being part of the NPN community.
A huge congratulations to all of the winners and to ALL of the membership here at NPN. As far as I'm concerned, we're all winners by being part of this community. I'll bet that 20 years from now we'll look back at NPN as one of the greatest contibutions to the art of Nature Photography of the 21st century. Happy New Year everyone!

Wow...just found this threat, and my photo in the Avian section of the EP's 2007.
I feel quite honored. Thank's for the pick and congrats to all others.
I haven't participated as much as I would have liked in the last half of 2007 but grad. school, and various travel kept me from shooting and participating. Hope 2008 leaves more time for this!
