...and the winner is: Clyde from OldTownePhotos. It was a close race but not a photo finish. Congratulations Clyde!
Thanks to all who entered and congratulations to the runners up.
The polls closed at 9 p.m. tonight (Sunday, 9/14) but, if you haven't had time to visit all the participants, you can still go to the Challenge entry and visit the links in the comment section...lots of worthwhile photos to view in those journals!

Congratulations Clyde! Beautiful picture!! We're about to head down highway 101 from Washington to southern California. Can't wait to see the Pacific pond and the sun sinking in the west. Linda in Washington state
What a beautiful sunrise! Way to go Clyde :) were you standing upright when you took this? lol

Congratulations Clyde, this is a beautiful photo. Helen
What a great ending to a nice day! I had my first photo shoot with a bunch of nice folks from PICTURE THIS Photography Club of Hampton Roads (Chesapeake, VA) - Meetup.com [ http://photo.meetup.com/577/ ] and came home to find my mailbox overflowing with congratulatories. I am honored to be selected to receive this prestigious award and I am deeply touched and inspired by your generous words of congratulations and encouragement. It was a last minute decision with my last shot of the summer. Of course, my fans would have eventually seen it anyway, but this makes it more better.
I'd like to thank our panel of distinguished judges and everybody who participated. Thanks to Marie, Vicki, Martha, Gina, Kat and Rob. And to Greg for all the tips and inspiration. Congrats to Donna, and to Nancy, whose Abby totally nailed 'Summer.' Y'all are up there with the best of the best. I guess I should thank AOL for providing a platform for us to share our photos and meet new friends everyday. This is truly a milestone for me and I hope the AOL Photo Community will continue for years to come with its values and goals. I follow a long line of truly talented and inspiring photographers. For those who didn't submit an image, thank you for visiting and for the comments. Now get your camera and go capture something for the next Challenge. Even if you have to sneak up on a flower.
Thank You, and enjoy the rest of the evening.
Clyde
Ps. BTW, After I posted the Sunrise Photo, I went through the rest of the images I shot that morning and found a better one. But it was too late. The rest are here >>> http://journals.aol.com/oldetownephotos/olde-towne-walkabout/entries/2008/09/12/sunrise-at-wrightsville-beach/1220
And as I was sitting there, waiting patiently for the sunrise and getting eaten by the sand fleas and no-see-ums, I thought to myself...
