Hope you didn't waste real beer trying to get this shot. :P

Very nicely done. The crown shadow in the background is a little distracting, but it's a nit - the first impression is a 'wow!' My top 5 in this round.

Amazing! Simple and relevant subject well captured from an unusual perspective, and treated nicely in B&W. I can picture it on greeting cards already :) I hope this gets the blue ribbon.

Breathtaking. I hope this ribbons.

The faraway rock reflections, the gorgeous colors of the sky, the textures of the closer rocks - all add wonderfully to the title-holders. Makes me want study the scene for a while taking it all in.

The processing artifacts on the top left sky (near the orange) are distracting a little bit, but that's a nit.

Phew! I hope this ribbons.

For someone who hasn't seen an aurora live, I can only envy all you Icelanders. Very well captured with an interesting foreground. The faraway houses and the tiny glowing chimney are slightly distracting, but I see them only after I spend a fair amount of time on the scene. Looks like it was windy too - with all the grass motion in the foreground. Worth your effort I must say.

Top 10 for sure.
I'm getting better at recognizing Iceland's landmarks thanks to all you wonderful photographers. As amazing a picture as I can remember ever seeing, of Dynosaur Rock. So how long did you have to stand still in the cold water? :)

Wow! Nicely done! My top 5.
So many colors and textures from the background to the foreground, and so much to study. Hope you didn't get wet trying to get the shot.
That wisp of a white cloud on the top right, and it's reflection in the water look out of place and slightly distracting, but that's Mother Nature for you :)

I wonder who this could be? :)

Might've been more effective with colored tissue for the flowers?
