Nikki McDonald April 14, 2010

Bet you thought I was never coming this month LOL I usually start at the end of the alphabet and work backwards but decided to change things up a bit this time!
Somehow it feels like cheating to pick this as a favorite from your March entries since it already scored big with the POTD, but I loved it from the moment I saw it. The detail and clarity are fantastic and I love the clean, simple lines of the composition.
I'm also rooting for Shy Girl (as always -- fantastic comp and colors), Swamp Shooter (I think you might not have taken this shot had it not been for the MT, but with his camouflage clothing and the hanging moss background, I think it's great), Sienna, Natural Beauty and several others. Good luck, my friend. #8535611

Mitch Spence April 18, 2010

Nikki, thank you. I appreciate, now and always, all the time you've spent in doing this. #8543083
