Had to go with the fungi!
 
Hmmm, Marzena still has 0.
 
Couldn't even vote myself on this one. Congrats to Larkspur for stealing my own vote away again :P
 
Wow talk about good selection, this is a LOT of entries.
 
Wait a minute, what happened? I swear I had a singular vote.

Someone had accidently hit your name, and the vote was corrected. You do have a nice picture. :smile:
 
Andre. :smile:

Hey that is not fair. Accidental votes are about all I get. :biggrin:

This was really tough. I went with Andre. Fall colors in the mountains are my favorites.
 
  • #12
Hehe alright. On the brightside, I wasn't imagining things!
 
  • #13
Proton Soups is so beautiful and soothing. But marzena's was so unique I had to go with her picture.
 
  • #14
They're all gorgeous and Marzena and hypatia had terrific different interpretations of the topic. But Proton Soup's looks like Faerie Country. It has an ethereal quality that's remarkable.

Edit: Borek's wall of colour is especially impressive too.

couldn't pick one easily coz they're so beautiful. :!)but i fell so inlove w/ fuzzyfelt.
 
  • #17
Thanks :smile:

I voted for Larkspur because I particularly like the way the picture captures an atmosphere of autumn. I'm interpreting the competition in that way, as "best Autumn/Fall picture", rather than "best picture (with some connection to Autumn/fall in order to qualify)". The latter would have been much more difficult to judge, as I like all of them.

Deer mating season, the pretty little lady deer came by about 5 minutes before he did.[/b]

No, I'm not going to say it. Nope, not this time. That's a no-no. However, this picture had the best story to tell, so I voted Hypatia's deer games.

There were too many great ones to pick from. I finally just threw a dart at my monitor!
 
  • #21

I voted for Hypatia. I just had a big bowl of hot chicken soup to warm up after deer hunting. I stayed later than I had planned (freezing my butt off) because a fat doe came into the area I was watching. She stepped out of the woods and stared right at me - she could smell me, but she couldn't see me because I was stock-still. Eventually she moved under an old apple-tree and stared munching on drops. She'd look up every once in a while, but was not alarmed. I was waiting for a suitor to follow her out into the field. No luck.
