I saw it before, but that supercell shot is just so awesome!

Congrats on a being a NG finalist. That's a feather in your cap forever!

Congratulations! That is awesome. Btw, someone tell them that they have misspelled your first name. ("n" is missing)

Thanks Doc. Believe it or not, this is my second feather!

I was also a finalist in the Landscape category in 2007

I'll be walking on air for the next day or so. :)

Two?!? Now you are just getting greedy.

Holy cow. I had a moment of Deja Vu from one of the other finalist pictures in the same gallery. I can't link it because it's flash, but look for the hazelnut orchard by Marilyn Affolter. I thought, hmm, that looks familiar...

I looked her up and, sure enough, she is obviously from Oregon.

Congratulations Jonathan!

I came close to taking one of the "winning shots" myself (no I didn't enter it, just saw the similarity).

I probably could do some dodge and burn and add more drama ;)
