Today's the day we pick a winner!!! Cast your votes!

First of all, a big thank you to all the participants. It was a hard decision to make to limit it to the top three hence I extended it to the top six contenders. All of the submissions were good, but I had to take the top six that had a visual impact.

Voting will end on Friday and I shall announce the winner then!
================================================== ====================================

Zera Vince's Shiny Solider


Remember2's Beauty of Black and Steel


Letsgodving's SD glass shot


Vh bu98's Mont Blanc shot


T5AUS's extreme end shot


Jason's tool watch shot

I like the glass shot because it's the most "everyday" thing in my opinion...

Luckily for us they, and a few others, didn't find this thread. Either that or they decided to just let the amateurs have a go. I'm thinking they decided to have mercy on us so we would have a chance.

What are you talking about? We're neck and neck. It's the four of us combined against him, right?

It is a very cool idea. It seems that several members are currently working on their photography skills so it might be cool to have a competition on a regular basis, maybe once a month or something like that. You could set up various themes. Just a thought.

That may be a good idea since the night I took that photo was the first time I picked up my camera in 3 months. I look at it and feel some what disappointed with myself since I know I could have done better.

Contratulations! It is a great pic. In all honesty I would of voted for your pic too but I was afraid that I would end up with no votes if I did that and I couldn't let that happen.

P.S - Thanks Vernon. Great idea.

Got your PM Zeravince, I'll mail it next week.

OK, since you won this contest, why don't you decide what the next theme will be!

You don't have to award a prize since I only did it since I had a spare box It was just for fun anyway.
