A smaller number of entries than usual, but still, not lacking in quality. I enticipate another very difficult round of voting.

The theme this time is "Tranquil". Please vote for the picture that best reflects the meaning and spirit of the word.

I couldn't choose between Geo and lark. It was hard but in the end I went with Geo because while lark's is über cool Geo's is probably a bit more tranquil.
 
Integral got my vote, I could watch them all day.
 
I went for Geomike that pic is awesome
 
I went with Integral even though I have developed a dislike for swans (an invasive species around here--but it's not their fault, the wee things).

The pic is "postcard" quality too, but I won't hold that aginst you.
 
I had to vote for larkspur. That is a very nice picture.
 
Tough choice (great pics everyone) but I had to go with Integral.
 
Another tight contest. You have 2 days left to vote in this one if you haven't done so already.
