Winning Images for Extrude Week

Kerry will be posting the winners here.:)

First off, I have to say that I am blown away by the response this week!! The posts were imaginative, creative, and just amazing images. Very tough to pick out five winners, but after much thought I have done so. All of the posts were winners in my book, so don't feel bad if you are not among the five!!

First place - Macaw Extrude by Cheryl Slechta - I love the texture and feel of this one and the creative use of the filter. Congratulations Cheryl!

Second place - Extruded Iris by Paul Lagasi - Great colors and good thinking to use a flip. Well done!

Third place - Wild Rose by Steve Adkins - Nice combination of settings used for an excellent image.

Fourth place - Black Oystercatcher by Indranil Sircar - Super base image and nice application of the filter.

Fifth place - Extruded Clover by Christopher Miller - Very inventive use of the filter to achieve a different look. Very nice!

I could have picked 30 winners this week! Thanks for your participation and I'm looking forward to the HDR images!

Thanks Kerry, some great choices. A week of some really outstanding work IMO.
