PF Photo Contest Winners - Things That Go Bump In The Night.

Another terrific set of pictures for this contest. I'm sure I speak for everyone that this was one very tough contest to pick just one. Congratulations to everyone who participated, and to the winners.

An interesting thing about my photo, The spot where I stood when I took the photo that I entered in "Fire in the Sky" is actually in this shot. I was on the other bank of the river, just to the left of the bridge. Since that photo took second place, this bridge seems to be lucky for me!

PF Photo Contest - I'm Ready For My Closeup, Mr. DeMille

By almost universal consensus, this was the most difficult contest yet. If this keeps up, then future contests are almost going to be impossible to pick. Well done to everyone who participated, and congratulations to the winners.

Thanks for the votes! :smile:

I followed those swans for about 20min before they gave me that shot. I have some other pics of that canal which are not so pleasing (a water hen walking on the floating garbage!). Inspite of the low water quality it was a very beautiful walk through Dublin. A Dubliner, I spoke with said that historically that canal marked the boundry of Dublin, now it seems to be right in the middle of the city.
