Contest #31 _VOTING_ (CLOSED)

The first rule of voting. Please please please leave a comment when you vote. This contest really comes alive when people just drop in,say hi and perhaps tell us why they voted for a particular photo. It makes the contest more fun and gives really great feedback for the photographers.

Other stuff:

• The poll will remain open for 7 days.
  
• You can vote for three photos. Your vote will be public
  
• Please don't vote for your own photos!
  
• As before there will 1st, 2nd and 3rd place positions.
  
• No prizes, sorry
  
• I will be announcing the names (aliases) of the people who win. Send me a PM if you don't want your name to be announced.

I am going to vote for #1 but shoutouts go to #6 which I like also.

8 is number 1 with me very nice image and took some tome and effort to do.
2 is my second choice....my toes are curled up right now.
7 is third very nice spooky feeling about the whole image.

I would have to say that 8 is the best of the bunch, although shame not many others participated (me included) I'm not much of a photoshop person, but still i should've given it a go.

Look forward to the next one

Number 8 has my vote as well. I thought it was a particularly clever use of PS. I'd also like to give a special mention to #6 which uses PS to create a lovely dreamy image.

Just wanted to say thanks to matty for running this competition. I know he's been very busy over the last few weeks so his help was especailly apprecaited.

My votes are:
#8: Excellent image, well thought out and processed.
#3: Again, good use of the software to combine the two images (at least).
#4: I like this effect, it's almost like an impressionist painting.

Thanks for running this

not a problem B,

number #1 gets my vote. i like the way it bubbles lol

Gosh this contest is really hotting up! 2nd and 3rd place are very close. All up for grabs at the moment. Keep voting people!

Following a stream of PMs, I wanted to make one point clear. Any member of the forum can vote.

• Participants can vote for any photo except their own
  
• Non-participants can vote for any photo

WOW look at #8 grab the ball and run with it!

I know, I don't think I've ever seen one photo get such a high proportion of the votes before! 2nd place is very tight though

I'm brand new to this forum, and this competition idea interests me a lot. I like #1, #3 and #8 in that order. The textures in #1 just grab me and keep my attention.

It's hotting up between second place. If you haven't voted yet be sure to drop one in.

well, poll's closed and 2nd place it drawn.
