But why are they ALL black and white? Nobody entered a half decent colour image? Or was b/w the stipulated format?

I voted for one but love them all! Black and white photography is my favorite, it showcases without distraction.

Thanks to all the photographers who submitted entries, you are ALL incredibly talented and creative!

black and then the light at the end of the lane is so bright. Even so, I can still see the detail of everything along the road. I love it.

But Peggy's Cove Lighthouse is so breathtakingly sharp I had to go with it. These were some really stunning photographs this time. I really love these contests. We have so many talented people around here.
