Some of the best lighting I've seen so far. Nice job.

Fantastic shot. Great composition. You did a great job of "seeing photographically" while you were out at the mall. Congratulations on your ribbon, it's well deserved!

Congrats on the ribbon. You did really well with taking advantage of the moment. It's a really beautiful shot. I love the smoothness that the neatimage created - one of the better applications of the program that I've ever seen!

I'm just thrilled to have finally won a ribbon. Now my husband has to take me out to dinner - we made a deal over a year ago that if I ever won a ribbon he'd take me out for a fancy dinner. :) Thanks everyone who voted. I watched my score go up and up all week and thought maybe there was a reverse April fool's joke going on.

This place is seriously one of the most beautiful places in the world - I hardly feel right taking the credit for what nature did. All I had to do was click the shutter. :) I used to go camping at this little remote place all the time, but hadn't been there for several years. When I saw this contest pop up, I thought it would be the perfect place if the weather would just cooperate, so I hopped in my car and drove up there. I took lots of great shots that day, but I'm glad I chose this one as my final entry.

Thanks again...

Congrats on a gorgeous shot (and your ribbon) - one of the most creative of the challenge, using deep DOF with something other than a landscape. Beautiful!

Congrats on the ribbon - I had this pegged for 1st, and my husband wants us to buy a print for our home if you make one available. Amazing shot!

My goodness. Not used to seeing something like this so in focus the whole way through. Excellent job on the challenge.

Very pretty framing. I love the mirror reflection.

Great shot, well composed. I think I'd skip having the fish tank in the photo, but I like the focus on the phone and the melodramatic guy in the background.
