This promises to be a very difficult final round. Please vote for the picture that best represents our theme - a scene during dusk or dawn.

Good luck to everyone.

Oh jeez. I feel a satisfying tug to each one of these photos.
I'm not going to say who I voted for. (No, I didn't vote for myself!) These are great shots, all.
 
This is a really tough one. I love the stillness of the water in matthyaouw's photo, the crispness in Chi's, and the giant sun in larkspurs. Eh gads...lol someone chose for me.
 
I really like that cotton candy cloud in Chi's photo.
 
ugh... in larkspur vs robertm battle, I voted for larkspur only because her sun seems to be closer to the horizon. this is what this contest is all about, eh? :)
 
You have 2 days left to vote in this contest.

Is that a humongous bush at the right in pic #6?

When bushes get that large, we call them "trees."

I was about to type "tree", but then I noticed how close some of the leaves were to the ground. Anyway, robertm's #3 picture looks rather surrealistic.

With one day to go, larskpur, once again, is running away with the contest. Can anyone catch her?
