RESULTS: *** Mini-Challenge #700 Nostalgia ***
1

Another low turnout unfortunately, but some great photos nonetheless.

Honourable Mentions:

Richard's star photo.  I think including the horizon really adds to the picture

Irv's sunset.  Simply beautiful.  The reflection on the water makes it pop very nicely.

Places:

Third Place:

WB's sculpture of the gold panner.  Well composed and great handling of the harsh lighting.

Second Place:

JP's autumn leaves.  Very colourful and detailed.

Len's girl in the Model T.  Looks like a true vintage photo, except in colour and two many stars in the flags.

So Len, the honour of hosting the next MC goes to you.  Congratulations.  Looking forward to it....Don

Thank you Don for the third place showing. Yes, always liked visiting that statue in Auburn, CA. Lighting was harsh, but the camera did a decent job with it.

Congrat's to Len with his Ford Model T pic. Great model showing the car off too.

On to the next challenge.

Wow.. thanks!    Now I gotta put my thinking cap on and come up with a topic. I'll announce it tomorrow afternoon (Central US time) most likely.

One question - I seem to recall seeing both one- and two-week challenges. Any preference / guideline?

Thanks again.

For years they were always one week challenges, then as participation waned we tried two weeks.  Didn't seem to matter.  My suggestion is go what fits your schedule /availability.

And have fun.  That's what these MC's should be about.
