Picture 3 is not an original picture so it should not be included in this contest!!! The penguin picture comes as a stock picture with windows 7. See for yourselves...

Vote for the f'ing penguins (inside joke with me and people I no longer associate with).

A very close second was mirror lake. The tipping point was that I think the penguins picture was much harder to capture.

On a different note, yet the same vain, I'd like to congratulate myself for having the keen eye and lack of knowledge to pick out the professional photographer from the amateurs.

Good job me…I love you...and me too...

It looks like people are still voting for the penguins. That picture should probably be removed....

I just realized that no. 3 -Penguins should have been removed.
BUT it is still there! hyper.gif
You see when I voted, I just saw the photos and had my vote. I did not even read what other people said.
So, I guess another photo should be put there, and the voting should start from the begining. Besides there is ample time ahead!

Due to the No.3 photo being a professional photo for which the rights did not belong to the member who uploaded it; the December photo of the month is cut short!
Photo number 2 will be considered the winner!
