Thanks again to all of you. This has certainly been a trip for me. I am glad the judges were feeling a little 'lizardy' last month. I am certainly aware that there are many, many images from last month that were just a good or better. But it really felt good to see the email saying I had won. I had to go to the winners page to double check that I was not imagining it. #4887283Philippe Vieux-Jeanton October 05, 2007
