Ohhh, can't decide between #3 and #4. I love the feeling from #3. I can almost feel the sensation of being up so high. #4 is a beauty too. Hmmmm.

#5 could do with a bit of lightening in photoshop, but the sky is gorgeous - so that gets my vote hyper.gif

I like Multnomah Falls, but #1 catches my romantic side. Anyone for a fairy tale!

# 5 is the most interesting to me - best composition I think, although I agree, could use a touch of photoshop. smile.gif

i should probably vote for #3 (multnomah falls) since i live right by it, but i ain't gonna. devil.png
i also like the color composition in #5, but the dreamy feel of #4 intrigues me most.

At first glance, i thought #1 was southern germany.

However, I voted for #3. I reckon It'd be just amazing standing on that bridge at Multnomah Falls, soaking it all up

I'm voting for #1 for two reasons: I like Hungary so much, having visited there several times; and I think that the photo has a great depth of field -- really nice!

Is #5 a digicam picture, or film? That's impressive light balance and/or photoshopping if it is with a digicam... How did you do it?
