I uploaded my image for Spanish Moss peoples choice but it doesn’t appear here yet. I uploaded it on 6/6/19.
Was on vacation. Savannah Blues is a great capture. When will we see the others submitted?
The third place placement of my image of Wood Stove does not match up with the second place ribbon I received.
Rick is right, I was in third place.
Missed this, unfortunately these comments don’t automatically come to me.
Jon, my name should be under the 1st place winner instead of Gail for the January Peoples choice.
Thanks, Anita
