BEST OF THEME
Stephen Prendergast, who picked this theme,  wrote: This was a very difficult group of photos to choose from. Being a Californian, I was drawn to Ruthie's photo "Dimming of the Day" with the placement of the setting sun behind the lifeguard tower throwing everything into silhouette. I also liked our winning photo, "Lake Oakwood Sunset" by Donna Palmlund, again for the use of sunset and sihouettes.  But I wanted to find a picture that took a different look at the theme, and Brian's photo of the marketplace at closing, with the dark blue sky, the lights in the buildings, and the empty tables, had that something different quality to it.  Congratulations, Brian.
