PF Photo Contest - Will You Be My Valentine?

The contest for first place was not even close! larkspur certainly ran away with this one from the very beginning. Heck, most of us could have predicted it even before the voting began!

Still, it was battle royale for 2nd and 3rd place! Congratulations to all the winners, and those who participated!

This was not an easy contest to vote on by any stretch of the imagination. It was difficult even in the first round. And the final round voting was very tight all the way till end. So congratulations to everyone who participated.

PF Photo Contest - Ain't No Valley Low Enough

As I predicted, it was the most difficult contest we have had so far. Every picture was a winner. In the end, even the members could not pick the best of the lot, and who could blame them? So for the first time ever, we have a 3-way tie for first place. We also have a tie for 3rd place. It was just a damn difficult contest to choose!

PF Photo Contest - Food and Wine

It was a very tight contest, with the 2 contestants who tied for first place at the end going off in a run-off vote. While hypnagogue won the run-off vote by just one vote to determine the prize winner, we will consider, as we normally do, that a tie at the end of the voting to count as in our regular contest.

So congratulations to everyone who participated.
