ALL the wonderful images can be viewed here (http://www.pbase.com/birdstrike/flyertalk_contest_4).
Thank you to the sponsors for these four contests, Cholula and bdjohns1, the Trip Reports moderators B747-437B and onedog, Senior Moderator SanDiego1K, and, not least, to everyone who took the time to contribute their stunning, thoughtful, and sometimes humorous images for the enjoyment of us all.
With that, I think it might be time for me to put my contest management efforts on hold for just a bit. Don't want to wear out the theme :)
For the photographers here, and those who want to learn about Travel Photography, please visit the new Travel Photography Forum (http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=629). We have a couple of ongoing, non competitive, theme-photo sharing threads going on over there.
