Winners! - Peaceful

I loved judging this theme because this was the very first theme that I ever judged. :S3: Wonderful images, everyone!!!

First place - Still - Michael Gerald-Yamasaki
I love this one! The open expanse of still water broken only by the tern conveys peace better than any words could. Very well done, Michael!

Second place - Dreamscape on the way to the Museum - Jay Sheinfield
A lovely composition combined with a soft, peaceful IR look. Well done, Jay!

Third place - Oriental Lily II -Steve Adkins
I love the details and colors of the lily, and combined with the textured BG, it's a winner. Well done, Steve!

Fourth place - Spoonie Blur - Cheryl Slechta
I'm not exactly sure why I like this one so much, but something about the colors and soft blur makes me all peaceful inside. Well done, Cheryl!

Looking forward to seeing your cowboy images! :w3
