14. Seriously

I've learned so much about photography and the appreciation of someone else's 'eye'. I'm hampered by my own lack of ability, but still can greatly appreciate the talent we have here on DU. Congrats to all, and I am so proud to be associated with such skill sets.

17. My pic is from Anadolu Kavagi on the cliff overlooking the Black Sea

on an impossible morning and day for photography. Visibility was really low. On the Black Sea cliff, you could not see one foot!

Was a bit shocked this turned out as well as it did...

Well deserved all around #1 and #2 were also really difficult shots to get from what I have read.

[CC]

18. Aren't those some of the best

surprises? Also like getting to hear where and hows of the day. It is a hauntingly beautiful photo to me. Mira choose my entry, and I cheat by feeding the birds daily. It is a bit easier when you know they will be visiting everyday.
