14. Thanks for my first first!

I had second thoughts about Vortex placing, much less taking first place, and was glad when second submissions opened. Thanks to everyone who voted for Vortex and to those who voted for my second submission, Greenhouse, in the preliminaries!

Congratulations to edhopper and MichaelSoE! The Dark Hedges, Northern Ireland and Floating Feather are splendid photos, which is why I voted for them in the preliminaries.
