Congrats, Gus

.

I picked your shot as the winner when I first saw it. Very nice!

Reminds me of the movie, Blade Runner.

Congradulations Gus on a well deserved win. Excellent "execution" --you literally "murdered" the other wonderful finalists

with this fantastic entry!

That was a bitching entry, i realized it the moment I saw it!

davev · Sep-22-2005, 07:41 PM #15

Congrats Gus. Now for the bad part, you don't get to enter the next challenge.

As others have said, there were a lot of great entries for this one. Hopefully,
that trend will carry on in the future.

Gus...congrats mate.

I knew this was a winner first time I saw it.

**lynnma** · Sep-22-2005, 08:33 PM #17

congratulations humy.. cool shot indeed..

aero-nut · Sep-22-2005, 08:34 PM #18

Congrats are in order, gus! Nice job.

***DavidTO*** · Sep-22-2005, 09:08 PM #19

I'm another one--that shot hit me the moment I saw it.

This was a really strong field, IMO. I really liked several others in the finalists and would have been happy with any of those winning.

Thanks everyone for your comments & voting.

We are coming up to a hot summer (as they all are) & are currently in our worst drought in over 100 years...the cities water is approaching critical levels if we dont get storm rain soon. I just imagined all that & tried to put it in a portrait.
