Thanks to y'all who considered my photograph worthy enough for the March challenge. It, along with a few other entries, obviously added to the ongoing debate over image manipulation, whether it be pre or post capture. (By the way, I voted for the MINI in the Redwoods.

)

What really excited me was the amount of participation. It's making me look forward to the next challenge- sunset (a favorite of everyone). There should be some awesome entries!

I am sorry for not having posted here sooner. After a 2300 mile drive, as Dave pointed out earlier, I arrived home about 3 hours ago. Traveling light, I only had three cameras with me- an LC-A film camera, my CoolPix 5400 point 'n shoot, and the ever-present Treo 600 phonecam. All in all I snapped about 200 pics so that's gonna keep me occupied for a few days.
