[Dan Brown]

Thanks and Congrats to everyone that participated! It was very difficult to pick just a few out of the dozen entrants but I did my best.

And the winners are -

1st PLACE - Romance http://www.birdphotographers.net/for...101535-Romance BY NANCY BELL. A fine composition with a beautiful subject. Congratulations, Nancy!

2nd PLACE- Summer Garden http://www.birdphotographers.net/for...-Summer-Garden BY MAUREEN ALLEN. Another great composition. This one stands on it's own regardless of the chop position! Congratulations, Maureen!

3rd PLACE- OLD CHINESE PARCHMENT http://www.birdphotographers.net/for...nese-Parchment BY PAUL LAGASI. Lots of Asian elements in this one, from the Kanji to the YEN AND YANG chop to the parchment frame! Nice! Congratulations, Paul!

Honorable mention - Water Lily http://www.birdphotographers.net/for...eme-Water-Lily BY BOB MILLER. Such a fine capture with great techs and the arcing reed in the bg! I only wished for a chop or a frame to go along with the Asian Theme! Great capture, Congratulations, Bob!

Thanks again, everyone for playing! dan
