CONGRATULATIONS! Raging_In_Miami
Edited on Thu Jul-28-05 03:17 PM by Blue_In_AK
winner of this month's photo contest for "The Looking Glass." Good job, everybody, and thanks for your help keeping the polls kicked.

It's all yours now, friend. :) Don't get tombstoned.

2. I have to admit
It feels great to win amongst such tough competition. But the real winner, of course, is Blue_In_AK, who hosted the contest on short notice after the original host got TSed.

So for that, she gets the honor of hosting next month's contest. Congratulations, Blue_In_AK, please let us know as soon as you can what next month's theme is going to be.

















































































































Just kidding!

3. Considering the fate of the last winner...
...perhaps next month's topic should be....tombstones? :evilgrin:

Congrats, Raging. Remember how I was the first person here to single out Looking Glass as a great photo, long before you entered it in the contest?

4. Yes you were
F. Gordon also commented on it, comparing it to "a looking glass" which is where I got the title.

It was those positive comments that got me to enter it in the contest in the first place.

We did cemeteries a few months back, which included some tombstones.

12. I voted for yours through both competitions
Even though I didn't even place in the top 10, I think yours was the class of the show. Fortunately, mine was in another poll in the first round. I would really have been torn if I had to choose between yours & my entry in that one. For the finals, it was no contest. Congrats, great pic.

Although I'm beginning to think Longgrain was right about you. What is this, your 3rd or 4th win?

9. Thanks Intheflow
This is my third time winning, but the first two times was when the contest had only ten entries, not thirty. So the record books will show a little asterisk next to the first two times I won.

13. so that means you'll retire now?
just kidding. Excellent photo.

This was my first contest I actually entered in, I always missed getting in on the ground floor of the other ones. I look forward to competing in next month's contest.
