locksmagic: Ok this is officially the hardest contest I've ever had to vote on, you all know i'm a sucker for black and white plus the subject matter is awesome. Good job to everyone who has entered so far. ( 5 years and 3344 days ago )
Mikaelbg: You are totally right Locks, this is gonna be a close one! ( 5 years and 3344 days ago )
friiskiwi: There are some nice moon shots in the competition, can they be considered landscapes? ( 5 years and 3344 days ago )
locksmagic: The shots of the moon are considered lunar landscapes, nothing in the guidelines say it has to be a landscape on earth. ( 5 years and 3343 days ago )
friiskiwi: O.K., Thank you for clarifying it. ( 5 years and 3343 days ago )
MnMCarta: well cool! Guess I have to book my trip to mars to get that shot!! ( 5 years and 3343 days ago )
jawshoewhah: I think very few landscapes look good in B&W. Some of these have a good contrast in solid darks and shadows but others, it seems they would have looks better in color. But that's just IMO....... ( 5 years and 3343 days ago )
kyricom: ummmmm, why was that night time one with all the stars removed? ( 5 years and 3339 days ago )
Contest Moderator: "Starry Night" was temporarily removed because it was not in B&W. Once the Author has made the necessary changes they can republish it via "my contest entries" ( 5 years and 3339 days ago )
kyricom: Oh. OK. Thanks for the info ( 5 years and 3339 days ago )

I have been here! But got very sick so did not get my Balloon ride!
