It was between trajan22 and Mk. I had to go with trajan22 for that golden Maxfield Parrish lighting - tough choice, but I had been anticipating this match-up since they showed up in the first contest thread.
 
That's okay, turbo, I'll go with Mk so they both get a vote. :biggrin:
 
I can't decide, I can't decide. Those are some nice shots...

then there is the face saving, if I want a vote I'd better vote for myself...:rolleyes:

What to do?

Should I look at the results?
 
Frankly I found janus picture as the best, me and some mysterious guy voted for him...
Integral I recommend that you don't look , terrible scores...
 
I went for MK but they were all so good it was very tough to choose
 
Ahh, this was easily the toughest one yet for me. In the end I went with Mk.
 
At the moment, it appears as though you can actually draw the outline of a mountain with the poll bars rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise. :biggrin: But still, both the earlier sets and this final one were pretty tough. :approve:
 
I actually really like Integral's too. Very serene looking. Sometimes I wish I could vote for 2 people. :)

Just wondering...why does the link to the contest thread link to a picture?
 
  • #14
That's because I screwed up.

A few more hours to vote in this contest, so it is now or never.
