I've said it before and I'll say it again, the photo challenge is one of the highlights of SteemIt for me. It's really got me back into my photography, and I'm so grateful for the effort everyone involved in running the competition puts in to keep it running!
Wow! Last week I was awarded first place and now second - I'm really grateful and quite happy, as you can very well imagine! Thank you @jamtaylor, @berniesanders and @blueorgy!
I'd like to commend the photos of @meesterboom, @vaughnelric, @dreamstream, @kommienezuspadt and @movievertigo. They are all excellent and I have followed you, so I can enjoy more of your cool photography work.
Hey, @jamtaylor, I just read that you are willing to have folks with good photography skills as guest judges - would you like me to participate in one of the challenges as one? I promise I won't vote on my photos! :D Get better, man!
Have a good day, guys!

wel done to all who entered and the winners
thanking @jamtaylor @berniesanders @blueorgy for the challenges great fun and are very interesting to see

@knight-angel
Congrats to all the winners (I thought @condra had this one in the bag with that hand dropping the sand - a non-mentioned entry)
Hope you're feeling better soon @jamtaylor.
Suggestion for another theme:
Wow, amazed, as always, by the creativity and imagination. All these photos are breathtaking.
Did you expect such wonderful outcome when you posted the seemingly narrow theme?
Ps: my grandmother's recipe: hot rum, cold beer and under the blanket over the night :)
Our recipe over here is a shot of rum, a spoonful of lime + honey, and wrap up warm to sweat it out :)
Excellent choices with so many amazing entries this week!
Great job everyone!
Wow, we really like Hands, don't we?
We did this week! We've liked a lot of things.
Stay tuned for this week's theme, not sure what we'll like then :)
Feet! :)
Great photos--again!! I'm so grateful to play among these artists. I love that so many are playing. Congrats to all those recognized. What a great playground you are providing. @jamtaylor, @berniesanders and @blueorgy!
Hope you feel better soon dude!!! Loved the theme this week and proud to get an honourable mention!!! Excellent winners, well done all!
Thank you. Looking at these beautiful pictures of all the participants, I realize how much I noob. I'm still learning and studying.
