So many good ones here. I'm going to savor these for a few days before deciding.

Wow, #6 is a very cool shot, but I certainly didn't expect it to run away with the voting like this!

Wow. So many good entries. I liked 18 of them from the start. This is when you really have to be picky about a photo and base it on the subject, relevancy to the topic, composition, exposure, clarity, uniqueness, etc. I whittled it down to three choices, but I have to go with 6. Very interesting shot, though honestly this was maybe the hardest contest yet.

It came down to 8, 10 and 11 for me and I went with 10. It's a magical scene.

Many of these are absolutely fantastic; very hard to pick a favorite. I really like #17, though, as it really captures the essence of "shoreline" to me.

Yay, somebody voted for mine! I never vote for my own, it just feels so conceited. My personal favorite was 8. I'm surprised so many people like 6. The more I look at it, the more it has grown on me.

I vote for my own every time. lol

If I didn't, I usually don't get a vote.

I don't get 6 and 17 at all, especially 6. Why is this the winning photo? I must have no taste in photography at all.

I like 3, 8, 9, 10, 11, 22 and 23 the most.

After careful consideration, 10 gets my vote. "Divine light" indeed.

6 is unexpected. That's why it's getting votes.

22, 12, 14... all great photos, but we could have all predicted that we'd see something like them in this thread.

6 is a great photo in itself. It conveys the vast barren feel of the area but as far as shoreline goes I don't think it is the best representation. I think I voted for it though lol, I can't rememeber.

p.s. 14 is fantastic.

6 and 10 are beautiful shots, but I think 17 goes best with the theme.
