Black and White: VOTING!

Good morning everyone! I will be taking over the voting part of our challenges, to take something off of Rachel's plate.

We had a really good showing for this challenge, so I'm excited to see the results. I'm guessing there will be a lot of honorable mentions.

Last challenge's winners were Mindy, Brittney, Erin, and April F (since we had two two-way ties), so don't vote for them this time around. Honorable mentions are welcome, though.

Please remember the voting system...
BEST TAKE ON THE CHALLENGE:
BEST OVERALL PICTURE:
Plus extra shout-outs.

Voting ends at midnight tonight.

Best Take on the Challenge: Teri
Best OVerall Photo: Jackie

Shoutouts: Rachel, Erin, Teryn, Amanda, Julie

Wow, I had a hard time with deciding who to choose for "Best Take", but it came down to who had the best contrast between the black and white.

Also, I've had a few people ask what I mean when I say "Level Adjustment Layer", so I'm putting together a tutorial on my photography page. http://lindylabunskiphotography.blogspot.com

I'm hoping to have it up no later than 08:00 PST this morning.
