Just saw it in Editor's First Picks, under the Photo tab. This is a new feature at BP. There are 8 photos and, each time you click reload, 8 more. They seem to come up randomly so you may or may not be able to find yours there :) Congratulations.

5/3/2007 5:23:54 AM

Congratulations on your win for this shot, it so very unique and deserved.
So sorry to read that your picture have been stolen, I can see why, they are well done. However, nothing excuses the theft. Have you looked into DIGIMARC.

5/3/2007 6:06:21 AM

I really appreciate your kind thoughts. Thank you.

I have not had images stolen personally, but it seems to be happening more and more. I do watermark my photos elsewhere, but never felt the need to here. I guess no place is really safe from theft, unfortunately.

5/3/2007 7:26:26 AM

A belated Congratulations on this most beautiful FIRST PLACE WIN - just gorgeous - almost surreal!!

5/4/2007 12:51:45 PM

Thank you Wendy, Raymond and April. I never tried the Orton Technique before and usually don't use effects much, but it really made this one come to life.

Beautiful job Lexi!
Congratulations on your win!

Thank you Jullian and Sandy.

This is a real show stopper! It is a superior photo with the Orton technic applied. I seen this one before on here but failed to track it down. I finally found it! Excellent photography and editing.

7/27/2007 2:04:04 AM

Such a glorious image, Lexi!
I don't know how I missed this one before, but I'm glad I've stumbled upon it this morning!

So very well done!
