WINNERS ***Mini Challenge #714 - Water, water everywhere ***

Not much participation again, but we'll keep marching along. Some very beautiful entries none the less, we'll start with the Honorable mention:

Jozef's image makes me think of a warm summer's day, listening to the churning water, sound of the water wheel turning, and relaxing.

3rd Place goes to WB and his beautiful panorama of Navajo Lake in Utah. I was there once just about the time of year he was, a definite chill in the air and the glorious Aspens quaking in the breeze. It can't get much better than this.

2nd Place goes to Don and his crashing waves along the seashore. Possibly along the rocky Pacific Coast, one can just feel the power as these waves crash on shore, the salt air and stiff breeze. It brings to mind my years of living on the Southern Oregon Coast.

1st Place goes to guinness2 and his beautiful capture of this extraordinary structure and water reflection. Maybe he can fill us in on where this is, the only thing I can make out is Aphrodite on the building to the left. None the less, so much to take in in this photograph, the architecture, the reflections, the colors, oh my. Congratulations guinness, the next challenge is yours.

Thank you for the third place showing for my pano of Navajo Lake.  Always enjoyed going up to the high country of Utah in the Fall.  This year was no exception.

Congrat's to our first place winner with his Roman architecture columns and water features at night.  At first, I thought these pictures were taken at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, NV until I reread the top caption.  Great photos and the night scene with lights took these photos to a whole new level.

On to the next challenge.

Believe it or not, I really did mean to enter this MC.

I've been busy all week, and when I am at the computer I'm wrestling my whole photo archive, so now isn't really the best time.

I'll be sure to enter the next one.

I also missed guinness’ first little quote at the top of his photos. Satellite photos show this as quite an expansive complex/Hotel. Very nice!
