***APRIL PHOTO CONTEST FINALS***

Here are our 10 FINALISTS for the APRIL PHOTO CONTEST. (Finalists were chosen as the top three from each preliminary thread, and then the next highest across all three threads.)

Our theme for the April Photo Contest is DU Travels. It is often said that travel allows people to broaden their horizons, to be exposed to customs and concepts beyond their 'home' circle.

Please choose your favorite!
Finals will run for 72 hours. The winner will choose the theme for the May contest.

All really creative and lovely photos .

That fist in the foreground of Springsteen's concert is perfect reflection of the moment.
