Sorry everyone, I got busy today and didn't keep up with the thread. I know this is a reversal in my thought process, but in the interest of fairness, I recommend that Jayson's excellent "Hoarfrost" be the Week 5 Landscape winner, as no portrait was entered, there will not be a Week 5 portrait winner. Then we can keep using this thread going forward for Week 6 with DavidWare selecting a single portrait and a single landscape winner from this thread entered from February 3rd through February 9th. Sorry for any confusion.

Thanks
Brant

What about my bluebird portrait?

What about my bluebird portrait?

Hi Vern. It looks like your bluebird portrait was submitted on Monday February 3rd which would place it in week 6. Davidware will be judging all photos submitted between Monday February 3rd and Sunday February 9th to select the Week 6 winners.

Again, I apologize for the confusion.

Landscape - A Little Rime On The Side

Portrait - Squirrel

Food is hard to come by sometimes around here. This little guy attacked my son's cub scout project and took it home for the family. Son was a little disappointed that the Dark-Eyed Juncos we have in the area weren't able to have some, so I had to make another.

I tried picking my winners yesterday, but the site was down for me, so here we go.

For my landscape winner, I chose Tounis' "Another View of Mont Blanc", what an outstanding shot!

And for my portrait winner, I chose Jayson's "Squirrel", another great capture.

Everyone had some great entries and it was a bit tough to narrow them down. Thanks again for having me judge this weeks contest!

[Jayson]

Thanks Dave! Congratulations Pierre! That was a great shot.
