 The first 8+ score on DPChallenge since 2021!

Wow this week has been a ride! I can't tell you how many times I hit update on the score, and then rechecked the highest rated images in site history. It was just above 8.7 with 17 votes and an 8.5 with just an hour and a half to go.

I actually had a different photo uploaded to the challenge and changed it with just minutes to spare after I found this photo.

Wowâ€Â¦ Congratulation! This is over the top beautiful.
Congratulations on your new personal best.
I never forget beautiful photography. Take a look at JD Woodward̢۪s portfolio, he has an image Autumn At Loon Island. This photo has been a long time favorite of mine and now it looks like the man in the boat has taken it. I wonder if your image is the same island.

That is incredible. I have never seen an image where there̢۪s not one single vote of six.

Love your score, I̢۪m so glad that it did well!

I marked with 7 - a relief after a lot of super sharp images
If it wasn't a standard editing I would have enlarged the boat or reduce the island

I will be disappointed if this isn't the blue ribbon. It is perfect! Looks like a justinm image to me. If I'm wrong, it's a compliment!

This is a stunning work of art. I remember an image years ago on DP similar. I will never forget it a top favorite of mine. I hope you win the blue with this shot.

What a perfect mood!!

One of the best photos I̢۪ve seen on DP challenge for quite some time, handing out a very rare 10 and an instant fave. This is sensational. Definitely the blue, no doubt.
