All of the pictures are so beautiful and to only be allowed to vote for one is so harsh

I don't know how you folks manage such stellar pictures, but I'm sure enjoying them.

Thank you!

35 or 40 miles south of me, and my admiration for the stunning composition of Pacific Coast, I voted for What the heck, perhaps because I share the photographer's awe that he or she found such a scene laid out in front of them. Perhaps because the symphony of blues rests my eyes at the end of the day. You all did great, as per usual.

I chose the Pacific Coast Highway Summer. It ended being a toss up with the gorgeous Hard Working Hummingbird.

Everything in the Pacific Coast Highway Summer came together perfectly. The fishing fishermen atop the cliff scares the bajeebers out of me. I suppose they are safe, but yet, one wrong move ...
Anyway, they are all wonderful. Congrats to you all!
