Osprey Nest, Salt Marsh, Golden Hour

Ha! Figures. I see a drone shot I really like, give it one of my top votes (a 9) and it doesn't break a 6? I give up. LOL

Sorry this didn't rise higher in the standings, but it's still, IMO, a very nice capture.

Tubing Beneath a Gathering Storm

Dang! Had this picked for 2nd place overall (I was your 8 - my top pick was the eventual Blue). I love the story that's being told here. Perfect balance and handling of the various pieces (tube, tubers, river, even the sky cooperated!). Only minor nit is this might have a slight lean to the left. Hard to tell as both edges appear to have some perspective distortion (trees leaning outward). The river bank alignment may also be contributing to the leftward impression (it's tough when the waterline doesn't line up with a horizon exactly - but I'm preaching to the choir. :-} ).

I know it's a long exposure, and certainly on purpose, but I really don't like the way the water looks in this at all. Almost looks like a slice of border added ready for a text line to fill in. Otherwise it's a wonderful capture of the mountains.

I get the hanging on for a ride, but come on, do they really have to use the bathroom there too! Nicely captured image. Good luck.

Nice. Like the inclusion of three blossoms and the processing is very pleasing.

I like this. I would like it a lot more, I think, if the man and main window filled the frame substantially more.

It's a fair study on fall leaves. A little ho-hummish. Sorry, just first impression. Good luck (Renee?)
