>>> MC 194 - Holes RESULTS <<<

[TorontoH5]

Everyone’s participation made this a fun mini challenge! Thanks for all of the contributions. It’s amazing how creative you were in submitting photos of holes. For a theme like this, we have to reinterpret our photos in a different way.

Choosing the top 10 entries from all of these great photos was a challenge of its own because of the wide variety of submissions.

I am posting the winning photos in a separate thread to speed up downloading of this first message.

Way to go Jerry--great photo. Congrats to the other placers and HM as well.

Thanks Danielle for 2nd place and for a well-run MC. Nice surprise upon my return from out of town. (BTW, the structure in my other entry was an abandoned corn bin.)

Regards,
Jolene
