No voting, just for your viewing pleasure and pondering. Monday is the deadline to get your peaceful photo in, then we'll vote next week. Contest Open to every member of DU! To enter: View this thread: http://www.democraticunderground.com/103638924The Theme for January ... Peace
In light of the events of this very new year around the world, it strikes me that we should share photos that invoke peace, instill peace, create peace, restore peace. Only your imagination is the limit. Landscape, people, animals... whatever is peaceful.
Enjoy your PEACEful rest of the week, weekend and MLK Day!
PS: They are in alpha order by the submitters' photo titles. Names of posters will be revealed after the conclusion of the contest.

Think "Peace" over the weekend!
It's so timely. Group meditation helps.

to entice others to enter? Maybe a larger audience will pull in more entries.
