Help me out~

Last year I did the Photo Contest at Kickapoo Valley Reserve. I had to submit 3 photos to their gallery and the public would vote on a photo.

I didn't ask friends to go vote like other contestants did, I just wanted to see if the photos if I'd get anything on my own merit.

I did when a tie place for second and I was tickled to find that out. It was one of my favorite shots of the past year when I had gone hiking on a full moon foggy night.


This was the winner of $50! Woooo hoo!


I am picking from these ones to submit this year:


1.

2.

3.

4.


5.

6.

7.


I definitely want to do just one of the fog photos, and really love the Trumpeter Swans. 

The tree is Maple Tree with a Tag on it and is considered an Icon of the Blackhawk Woods. The coyote and I saw each other on the trail one morning and I thought it was cool.

The last one is a view of one of the most used trails in the reserve and it looked like a trail into a mystical late fall scene.

What ones do you like?

I'm going out tonight to see if I can't 'catch' the last glimpse of the Milky Way before it decides to leave our part of the sky.

Last night I practiced setting up the camera and taking a few shots so I'd be better prepared for this evening...Hopefully!



Thanks in advance for your help!!!
