Hi :)
I have to thank everyone who entered the contest for their effort and the lovely and interesting pictures. I am really amazed at the creativity and the high level of competition this contest had. It really made judging very difficult. All the judges agreed that they could have easily selected 30 winners.
There were so many pictures I loved but there had to be one winner and a first runner up. We finally narrowed it down to the top 12 selections and chose the top 2 winners.
The winner of the L$20,000 cash prize is:

The following 10 listed ( not in any order ) deserve some honourable mention as I really enjoyed looking at the pictures and liked certain aspects of the composition, style, lighting, creativity and skills involved in the creation of these pictures. They win a $L500 gift voucher each as a token of my appreciation.
