How did we pick images? There were about 500 entries and it was tough picking which images to feature. So many were SO nice! The two judges went five rounds over four weeks, to come up with a "Finalists and Prizes. But still, there were so many beautiful and interesting pieces, so we added another Virtual Gallery, "Lovely Landscapes". And then, we had some very creative entries that sorta defied the traditional definition of "landscape", so we added "Loosely Landscapes". That way, more entires got a chance to be promoted. Lastly, we added a "Special Recognition Award" and created a Virtual Gallery for a small solo show by Photographer Dan Clouser. Each category below has its own Gallery Presentation. Just Click on an image or title and the Presentation will appear on a new page. ENJOY!
