Another poster commented on the talent at DU.
All the photo contests are much loved by us and I share with a few others. Again, thank you all.

IMHO, I believe every one of final 10 are winners.

I can say that this year since I moved south. I do miss winter's beauty which I only started to enjoy after I didn't have to go out in it any more.
