Congratulations! I had completely forgotten about this image, and the thumbnail (to remind me) just didn't do it justice. Otherwise I would have bumped this one in to my top-5 list. Congrats again, the blue here is well deserved!

Beautiful! I love the colors, the textures, the framing. (though I bet you get negative comments on the border, the trees used to frame the photo are excellent)
Good luck on the challenge!

P.S. This has to be top 5. Good luck!

Windmill at the open air museum in Bokrijk Belgium.

I like the framing, done both the tree leaves at the top as well as the road and fence at the bottom. I like the colors, the composition (windmill on the thirds line), the angles, the texture. Great shot! The only distracting thing is the shadows on the left side. Since this is advanced editing, they could have been cloned out. Good luck on the challenge!

P.S. I'm betting on a ribbon here ... or a least top 5.

The highlighting was probably done in PS, but I love it! This picture really brings the subject into focus and lends emotion to the image. Excellent use of b&w and DOF.
