I just left a message for Sue to start the next challenge. Let's wait till tomorrow and see if Sue shows up. If not, one of the #2 positions can start the next one.
Have a great day!

Beautiful images. Congrats to the winners. Katt45 your image went straight to my heart!

Thank you so much fryefoto. I took that photo of my granddaughter on our Thomas the Train trip. She is so into Thomas so she was very intent on watching all the scenery during the ride so I started snapping photos of her while she was unaware, trying to get a good reflection in the window.

Just want to say it was hard voting I think all the entries were fantastic. Congrats to Sue T and the other winnners.

We still have not heard from Sue and today is Wednesday, so let's start the next challenge today.
O.k. - I flipped a coin and hawaiiboy is the winner!

Please start the next challenge!

Oh dear ... I'm so sorry ... we departed on vacation a couple of days before the voting ended and I had it in my mind that my shot wasn't a contender for #1. Therefore I figured I didn't need to let elfieh know.

Thank you for moving on without me!

The good news is we revisited and kayaked the same lake I took this winning entry at, Boya Lake in northern BC. We're now in the Yukon, with another two weeks of travel before we're home. And for the first time in two weeks I have internet access!

And I'm collecting another great batch of photos for future challenges!

I am happy to hear that you are alright.
Hope the rest of your trip
is great.

Happy shooting
