Mine dropped from a 7.30. Voter scrubber. I was thinking this image would be for Blue. It's a fantastic landscape with the light and low hanging clouds. Congrats on a new PB and the Red!

It can happen also because of people who haven't voted 20% of the pictures. Probably Dennis' score was even higher than what he got.

In any case a wonderful image!

Beautiful image. Soft and serene. Unfortunate about the plane trails still one of my top picks and I hope voters are open minded in this challenge and not too literal.

wonderful representation

The way this photo captures the whole valley and splays it out in front of you is great. The fog flopped into the bottom like pancake batter inching outward, taken from a highpoint towards the flat horizon instead of the other way around makes the photo feel like a big reveal after a long trek to summit. All around approval from me.
