For Entering. If you have entered- you get the camera crazy award!!!!

First off we'll do the water category

Olive Tree-

Your pic was AWESOME! I expect nothing lessof you, of course, but this is great. Beautiful with the sunset, sailboat and ocean.

Anime Lover-

I get the idea....and the branches are a neat effect, but this pic would've been better if maybe you'd taken a little more time to set up and get the angles different and such.

Swiftstar-

This is a great pic. You obviously tried to get some cool angles and you had an interesting set up. Great job!

XanFan-

Interesting idea, but I would have liked it more if it had some artistry in it. It looks like you just threw the hose down on the ground and took a pic. (which, being your sister, I know you did)

Zach-

This is a very neat picture. I love how there's Liberty, your cat, playing on top of my house's hose. So it's water, with a cat on top. FUNNY!

So there we go. So the winner of the water category is

OLIVE TREE!!!

You get this award~

So now for the music pictures

Olive Tree-

Simple and artistic. Nice style.

Anime Lover-

Good idea, but the lighting wasn't very good at all. Should've taken the time to fix that.

Swiftstar- I like the guitar but it didn't seem like you put much, if any real effort into this picture.

XanFan- LOVE it! With half of Zach's face and the iPod end earbud, this was a very nice interpretation of music.

Zach- The picture of XanFan dancing is very good. The only trouble is that I really can't tell if he's dancing, or he's just acting normal XanFan-y. :)

The winner of the music category is-

XANFAN!!!!

You get this award~

So now for summer

Olive Tree-

Your queen anne's lace pic was very nice. Flowers do interpret summer very nicely.

Anime Lover-

Your picture was awesome! It was definatly the best of your pictures.

Swiftstar-

I like it. The beach is summer-y and this was a great picture of the beach.

XanFan-

Again, you need to TAKE YOUR TIME. It's another rushed photo. and to tell the truth, plain blue sky with powerlines, just isn't that interesting.

Zach-

Great. The way you captured that cloud was awesome.and then trees in the corner make it an even better picture.

We have a tie for this category-
