http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=439x1394855Congratulations to all. I had about 10 host's choice awards that I could have handed out, but limited myself to three. CC has said she will try to post a "who took what photo" thread, so that all the mysteries will be resolved.

1. BIA - now I know the abbreviation - you did a great job. |
|
The photo being pulled was surely a cog in your wheels as well as a cog in the wheels of the contest. Yet you went ahead seemingly undisturbed.
I'm proud of you. I could not have done it this well.
We need to honor and name the photographer of "Dangerous Beauty" as the third place. A flurry of last minute votes threw WJMS and me into a tie for second.
It is such fun to learn the identity of the photographers. That moment to me is the exciting part of the contest. Thanks again, Blue. The unflappable and wonderful photographer that you are.

2. I will certainly give credit, |
|
although to be fair, I said the poll was closing at 6:00, I posted at 6:04 that it was now closed, and immediately asked a mod to lock it. I am usually a person of my word, and appreciate when people are prompt and on time.
But I will go back and add that one on as third place because the photo was beautiful.

3. It's very hard to time this - actually pretty impossible. Been there. |
|
And I watched 13 votes come in a few minutes at the end after hours of nothing. Amazing. I agree about the beauty of that photograph and want the photographer to get the honor. Whewwww. This was a nail biter.

This sure was a contest with lots of wonderful photos and the voters did a fantastic job selecting the winners. I felt honored to be in the same thread with them, much less a host's choice.
Thank you for hosting!
