Great photos & always so hard to pick the winners. Nonetheless, it is now done... so let’s get on with the announcements. These two get honorable mentions - in the the final round, but not quite enough points to hit the prize podium of Grand, First, Second, and Third. @AdamS https://omegaforums.net/threads/201...ummer-photo-contest.97287/page-3#post-1275420 and @dougiedude https://omegaforums.net/threads/201...ummer-photo-contest.97287/page-2#post-1274452
Since you used my moose photo twice, I wonder if that should have had a watch in it to win something...

Edit: First Prize DOES go to @Rolycoaster ... the original post below was simply a fevered dream. ————— First Prize ... would have gone to this photo BUT ... Unfortunately,@Rolycoaster didn’t meet the minimum membership tenure requirement. Fortunately, I noticed that fact just as I was about to post this. Unfortunately, no prize for you @Rolycoaster Fortunately, all the qualified winners thus far are now elevated one rank! Unfortunately, I’m too lazy to edit the previous posts in this thread. Fortunately, @AdamS now will qualify for a prize, Unfortunately, @dougiedude still will not. Fortunately we’re ending with fortunately, doh! https://omegaforums.net/threads/201...ummer-photo-contest.97287/page-2#post-1270713

Again, huge thanks to all the participants for once again providing the Darlinboy family the opportunity to come together in support of my whacky whims. I will PM the winners shortly regarding prize selection.
Congratulations to the winners - and a big thanks to Darlinboy with family for staging this nice competition!
Oh no! Botched that didn’t I? I blame Heat, Barbados Rum, and nearsightedness. 2017 < 2019. You are Back in the Winner’s Circle! And @AdamS will also receive a Prize.
