I'm already a winner. I entered this contest thinking I would post a few photos each day then everyone sorta caught a case of enthusiasm. I also began to run out of "contest grade" photos. I had just gotten a new camera and lens so I put them to work. I explored my post production process and found new skills there as well. Combing my archives for old images that just needed a little dusting and polishing, I found a few more entries. Every day - make that every hour... I saw the competition bring forth a grand assortment of ideas and perspectives along with some thoughtful comments from the peanut gallery.
In short, I know, too late for short, I have become a better photographer IMHO on many different levels. TAH DAH! I'm a winner.
You guys should feel that way too.
