--Wow!...two really wonderful gardens blooming with SO MANY beautiful
and interesting plant photos. The collective creativity and ability
displayed is so inspiring...what a great group of gardeners you ALL
are! Thanks for supporting this theme with so much enthusiasm...it
was really a joy to host. I'll come back to stroll through the
gardens often.
After reviewing the debate on the voting changes made in the last
challenge, I'd like to try something a little different. Because of
the way this new system will work, I'm asking you to please vote in
SOME way for BOTH galleries. I think people in both galleries would
appreciate a pat on the back. Everyone, please feel encouraged to
vote...whether you entered photos or not. You'll have 48 hours to
cast votes.
Voting Guidelines:
- Vote within this thread.
are not required to cast any or all of these 12
- Cast 4 points for your very favorite single photo in each gallery.
- You can then award up to 12 more points in each gallery. You
points....or to cast them the same way in each gallery.
Vote according to your style preference. Maximum points allowed
per photo is 4.
friendly spirit of the challenges, please vote for photos
- Honorable mentions & comments...as many as you would like.
- To show appreciation for each other's work, in the traditional,
other than your own.

This is not very complicated; and it accomodates a wide variety of
voting style preferences. I'm happy to be the "guinea pig" for
this method and tally your votes, however you cast them. Your
favorites will still rise to the top. At the very least, this can
serve as a "poll" indicating how voters prefer to vote. Let the
voting begin, and try having some fun with this part of the
challenge too. The "task" of voting should be a little more
enjoyable, given a personal style choice...but, please, do cast
votes
Thank you,
