I'll be first up! I took this pic just the other day actually. There is actually a small (12-15 sites) country, graveyard directly behind me, Some of my distant family is burried there and I help my uncle and dad mow it occasionally. Its way up on top of a hill/mountain and absolutely beautiful up there, right here in good ol' East Tennessee. Anyways, Here is the pic....

Outside Oatman, Arizona in April, 2008, on old Route 66. I think this shot was on the west side of Sitgreaves Pass.

Took this one while bear hunting (for photos only) in the Smokey Mountains 2 years ago. A bear had actually just crossed through the grass in the field. Very cool evening....but my daughter was scared "$hi+le$$!"

Used a center spot neutral density filter to give it that natural vignette effect.

This was shot at Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area in Pennsylvania just on the edge of Lebanon/Lancaster County Just some of my favorite land farm land.

Hey, wow, can't believe I won. First off, I wanna thank Jim for running such a great forum, Waterwings for all the work he puts into the photo contest, and all the members here that make it such a great place to hang out. Thanks to everybody that took the time to vote for me, and to everybody else that entered with such great shots to make the competition so tough. The quality of the other entries almost made it hard for me to vote for myself (but I managed). I am, at once, honored, proud, and humbled. OK, guys, enuff of the speechifying, belly up to the bar, drinks are on me (but only the first 2) :beer: \/

Well, I was gonna take a break from them after August, and then continue in December or January. But after your statement Chris, they'll have to continue un-interrupted.
