Congratulations Brent, you achieved a very fine composition with a subject that is actually ugly! All the placers (posted by Colin, Frank, again Brent and Chris) are very good too, and very diverse, which has been a little the rule in this challenge. This would mean that each one has his/her own annoyances and nightmares!

As Marimontse's official translator, I've had a very early access to the results, so I can be the first to congratulate the winners: Brent and Colin you did a great job! So did the rest, because this has been a very good challenge, and I've ejoyed it a lot.

Now Brent, what you will propose?

Thanks so much Marimontse for a theme that go me out in the weather instead of sitting inside in air-conditioned comfort. Sometimes it seems that gravity is taking over my life.

Thanks to Warren for the use of his site and the Wonderful Voting Machine. It has made this whole thing easy!

Congrats Colin on a great picture! I really think you should try and shop that picture (stock photo?). It is really a remarkable pict.

I want to thank all for your votes (ended up glorifying people trashing the environment after all - Oh NO!

A hint for the next challenge - go ahead and post in the ex/ comp if so inclined ( the moderating will be loose as usual

and everyone alse who was placed!

Nicely done by everyone!

Shirley A

to those who placed and to everyone.
Thanks Marimontse for the theme.

a double placement for you! The dog was just so adorable and miserable looking at the same time. I'm with him, I couldn't stand being locked away, that's why I never robbed a bank. LOL

Nice shot to you too Brad, that cemetary would be one to avoid in the middle of the night! Stefan, I've seen so many videos of what happens when you miss judge your slide down a railing. That is more than OH NO! OUCH! Brent that wall clown was awesome. The photo colors just draw you in, only to get a creepy feeling from the text. Nice job all!

Brent that was an excellent photograph of something revolting. It's a piece of art. You're very talented at finding the ugly and making it beautiful to look at.

Colin, hold on to your hat! ) Cute shot, well executed!

Frank, that was a sad shot. Luckily I've never run across a scene like that but, you know the same thing is in every major city around the world. Here in some parks it is condoms you see. Equally as gross to me. There's even a river park we have renamed F*tt B* ker park. Ewwww!

Brent, I remember playing in gutters and creeks and the picture brought back fond memories. I don't know any child that can resist a good puddle.

Chris, such a great shot of the baby birds. I loved it!

Brent, I see you've started a new theme. I'll have to go read it and see what I'm up for this challenge. Right now, I have to go downstairs and get busy. I'll read it later gator!! Looks interesting!
