Not me :frown: The winning photo in the channel 7 contest was a sunflower field. I'm not disappointed though. It was fun entering and thanks to everyone here who voted for me. I can't post the winning photo here because of copyright laws but you can see it at thedenverchannel.com

It was fixed :biggrin: Honestly Jack...after looking at the final images, I am surprised by this.

Jack, I thought you had some serious competition, but the sunflower field wasn't what I had in mind. Oh, well, this is why I don't enter contests. There's no accounting for the tastes of the judges.

Thanks for the support everyone..I'm fine with this. I knew that whoever had the biggest friends list on FB and other venues would most likely win. Also, what we see in this forum as critical and technical photographs don't always appeal to the masses and I knew that going in. I am happy for the winner and that's what really matters most.
