1. You make it very tough to choose.
But I had to go with the last one. The blazing lights remind me of Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

3. Too tough for the actual vote on the first go-around
I may vote for it later, but I think Olympic Moon has the highest "winning" potential based on what I've observed, but they all do so I'll have to stew over this a while.

5. I'm with you...
...They are all way above average but the Olympic Moon is a real standout for its strong, bold,almost abstract shapes and colors. Plus, I left my heart in the Olympic mountains many years ago so am obviously biased! Nice job regnaD kciN!!

4. I really like the first two, but I voted for the last one
Liked all of them actually, but the last really jumped out at me.

6. these are all winners
I, too, waited to vote. I had to go with star over the cascades. I like the minimalism, and I love the mystery. Second fave? Eclipse. These are personal, though, and I can definitely understand people voting for some of the others.

Clearly, these are ALL wonderful.

7. I voted, finally
You already know which I think might have the most "winning" look. It's gorgeous.
But I voted for Eclipse, it is the most personally intriguing. I love them all.

8. Seattle, Eclipse and Olympic moon are all too good to choose from.
In the end I picked Eclipse but Olympic moon is still too striking for me to believe I could pick between them.

9.  Star above the Cascades has really got me too. Eclipse looks like you shot a planet in outerspace.

10. I'm going to have to get back to you
on this. I love them all. Right now I'm gravitating towards "energy" because it's a bit unusual. 5 minutes from now it will probably be a different one. :shrug:

11. Like many here...
Like many here, I've been indecisive about which photo is the best. They're all so good that it's hard to choose just one. I'll have to somehow make up my mind and vote later tonight...

12. Energy
I had to go with Energy. I quite like the first one as well. It looks like something you'd find on a postcard but that also worked against it as well - it's a fantastic shot but Energy was more unusual.

and went with Star Above the Cascades.
