😃Spring Photography Competition Final is now OPEN for Voting😃
Hello my lovely fellow DUers.
We have had a marvellous Spring Competition with 30 original and varied images being submitted. The Preliminary round of voting closed earlier today, and so it time for us to once again ask you all to vote for your favourite of the favourites. I think you may have a difficult time choosing. They are all awe inspiring images, and bring a bucket load of beauty into what is a rather dismal time. A huge thank you for everyone who took part and even if your image did not make it into the final they were still terrific. Well done to the 9 images that made it into the final. Your pictures are out of this world.
The poll will stay open for 72 hours and I will announce the winner shortly there after.
So without further ado ladies and gentlemen - the finalists are:
Do Bee Dobee Dooo . . .
Feed me, feed me!

The Red Admiral
Cabin in the woods
Late Spring 3rd Street Stuff
Juncos on my porch
New Life - June 2020

Amazing!
- Soph & photographers!
But I never vote in the finals when I am hosting, so I can happily say they are all equally gorgeous 
All marvelous shots all telling the story of spring.
I love hosting the competitions. It brings out my organised and bossy sides 
Now can someone tell me how I can get to that cabin?
I want to live there. 
... until you are under a feet of snow without central heating... 
none of that would bother me in the least.
Now that I'm old and arthritic, shoveling snow doesn't sound as fun as it did when I actually lived in the mountains.
Foot of snow? Try many, many feet of snow.
All these years later, my back still remembers all those feet of snow. 
Not only did I live in the mountains, I worked outside. I had to get my 'must live in the mountains and run a chairlift' feeling out of my system.
There was one day that I know it was 10 below, but I had no idea what the windchill factor was that day. I do remember it was very windy. I still wish I could have found out what it was with windchill factor.
You actually get used to it. You can eat anything you want and you burn it all off. Nobody tells you that when it starts warming up, don't eat so much. All of a sudden your pants are too tight. And when I say warm up, I'm talking about 25 degrees.
Once you get into the below zero numbers, when it comes back up into the twenties, we were actually wearing t-shirts, and sweating. Seriously. Those were the good old days!
My ancient / arthritic body can handle 4 inches of snow!
Packing the car and heading to North Carolina!
please vote. 
Kick.
Impossible to choose.
Wish we could have 2 or 3 votes.
I chose my favorite of the rest, although it was a toss-up. Of those I could view, very hard to choose. Beautiful pics!
They were:

Thanks, Soph! Appreciate it!
Great job everyone!
Awesome efforts from DU's talented photographers! 
as a reminder so we keep our decisions within that theme (springtime, I think).
Great selections all the way through and our photographers are to be commended!

I like the little kicking donkey!
