Wow! Amazing pictures!

I shouldn't be surprised anymore by now since we have had outstanding pictures during all the contest, but they continue to be amazing. Well done everyone!

Please vote for the picture that best represents our theme this week, which is a picture of a river.

{Since there were 11 entries, one more than can be included in a single voting round, rather than split the voting into 2 groups, I've decided to withdraw my entry so that we can do the voting in just one round}

Wow! Amazing pictures!
I agree! I especially love waterfalls and the wilderness areas. I hope I get to see all of those places in person. :-p :biggrin:
 
my vote goes to integral.

really tough choice though
 
Another hard one, I went with Integral because I like the scene, but really I could of chose half a dozen here, again the standard is very high and it really is a close one.
 
All of these are beauties, but my vote went to jtbell. There's just something I found special about that place.
 
Integral has mine, breath taking.
 
Just a reminder that you have 2 days left to vote in this contest. It is difficult. Just 2 votes separate 1st place and 3rd place, so every vote counts!

Less than a day left and it is CLOSE! Get those votes in!

Hootenanny and Larkspur entered beautiful images, but as a rabid fly-fisherman, I had to go with Scorpa. That river's got to be loaded with trout, and I've got cabin fever bad.
