I think you were robbed of the Blue ribbon.
In my humble opinion of course.

This image, due to fine processing, could have been taken in the 1930's American Dust Bowl. However the headline came to be attached to the photo, it's timely and heartbreaking. As this transpires, I imagine I can hear the champagne flutes clinking in the house upon the hill. To write the op ed, so pardon me. Anyway, it's a very handsome photo

My favourite for the challenge, excellently photographed. This could always be in the news IMHO. Your editing is superb also. Should ribbon.

I agree. FRAME this and hang it.

It's such a fabulous piece of art!

I like simple nature images. Just the two crisp leaves and some pretty shapes and light in the bokeh. Nicely composed (which is certainly part of the challenge of Minimal Editing!).

Nothing like a good primary song for title inspiration!

Love it. It looks like a painting. Probably would have ribboned in another challenge.
