    Looks like so far we have ourselves a "whopper" of a contest.
    Very nice photos. This may be a close one.

    friscobob,
    I show 4 images in your post, but for the contest we're only allowing three entries per member (of course now that I think about it, 4 makes better sense as it's the image limit for a single post. But nevertheless, that will have to wait till next year). If you could go back and choose your three favorites and remove the 4th that would be appreciated. Feel free to post the one that does not make the cut into the cutting room floor thread. :)

    Thank you,
