My first thought was "beauty must be in the eye of the beholder" but on second look this really is beautiful, like an oil painting. The subject is not so beautiful, but I'd be happy to hang this photo on my wall.

Nails the challenge theme -- really catches the beauty in the everyday.

This catches the spirit of the challenge and the b&w works well.

Very nice! I thought at first it was falling snow. The b&w works well. No doubt your number of viewers will increase even further thanks to your thread! ;-)

Congratulations on your first ribbon. I gave out plenty of 8's and 9's, but you were my only 10. Best in show for nailing the theme plus technical competence (beautiful job on the toast painting, too).

Jon, I hope you didn't sew this little number just for the challenge! :-p
Very funny and a bit disturbing!

Not to take away from the other fine photos, but this is "best in show" by my reckoning. Not only is it hilarious, it fits the theme perfectly with no technical problems. Congrats on your top ten.

Mark, congrats on your top ten! I missed this earlier (I didn't vote in this challenge and I don't think I even looked at the entries). Terrific photo, the colors are beautiful and the composition is just right.

Don't let the 1 and 2 votes bother you -- nearly every photograph gets some, even the photos that win ribbons.
