Dispite GeoMike's photo just being a generally awesome photo I think the torrent of water in Janus' photo embodies the theme more.

nobody liked my pic i guess water wasn't the 'main thing' in it or what?

I still like Andre's picture really well, but had to go with GeoMike in the show-down.

It was a good pic and you got three votes but you have stiff competition.

A hard, hard choice. I had to go with an emotional attraction to the cold, lonely lighthouse.

It was a tough choice between Andre and Geo Mike. Mike has a great eye and it is a beautiful shot but I have a thing for blue skies so Andre got my vote on this one....

I went with Janus this time.

Actually, perhaps we should do a light house theme. Zz?

Great pics!!!

Ivan Seeking · Oct 10, 2006

This was the toughest one yet for me but I had to stick with Andre. They are all great pics.

GeoMike · Oct 10, 2006

I went with Integral. The lighting has a great surreal quality to it, and the mist in the shot really adds to the "water everywhere" theme.

Thanks Geo, Considering the quality of your shots, I take that as a real compiment.

By the way, that shot is looking south to Cape Argo, one of the western most points on the lower 48.

Awsome Pics

They are all great pictures. I agree with GeoMike the lighting was "great surreal quality". But had to go with Janus's picture its got a very peaceful even romantic feel about it. Where ever it is I want to go there.

I had to go with Andre, but it was tough, they were all awesome!

ZapperZ · Oct 11, 2006

You have less than 2 days left to vote in this contest. It is a difficult one, and that is reflected by the very close number of votes so far. So every vote counts!

Okay,
Start at Portland, OR.
Drive about 30 mi east on I-84.
Take the Bridal Veil exit and continue East on US 30 (Columbia River Highway).
Keep going past Multnomah Falls until you get to the Horsetail Falls parking area.
Take the trail to Upper Horsetail (Ponytail) Falls.
A 1/2 mile hike later, arrive at Upper Horsetail Falls.

Here's a map to aide you on your way( And also to other falls in the area.):
