Well this has been a difficult week, it seems a lot of you are "Twisted", which is a good thing. As I made my way around I copied and pasted the ones that caught my eye into notepad. I thought this would aid me in having it all at hand when the time came to select. Well it did and didn't, as I found I had much more than 20 entries at the end. I then had to sort through and agonize over who would not be on this weeks list, and let me tell you that was hard. So here are my results for the 2nd week of this competition, and please those of you that didnt make it to the written portion you see there is a good chance you made it to my notepad, an excellent job everyone.
The following are the Top Ten Honorable Mentions
(in no particular order)

done voting... it was fun. . .
ReplyDeleteCongrats everyone on the top 10.
ReplyDeleteWell done everyone!!
Thanks for placing my picture in the Top 10! I feel honored to be chosen :)
ReplyDeleteSuch great entries. Congratulations to the Top Ten and to the Honorable Mentions. There are several in the honorable mentions that captured my soul and stirred such good feelings within that I wish I could have voted for them.
ReplyDeleteEach vision of beauty that we feast our eyes upon touches each of us differently and that's what makes this so fun and interesting to try and find and see the beauty from another's point of view, to recognize the soul stirring emotions brought forth and stirred by memories of life as we have experienced it thus far.
There is beauty in each photo, there is history in each photo, and there is a special reason that each and every one of us choose what we choose...my joy comes from not only looking upon the beauty, but trying to feel the emotion that stirred within you to take the picture you have taken. I love it when you post your reason or feelings behind yoru photo.
Thanks for the compliment of being in the top 10this week, but Nancie gets my vote this week, her Buddha's Head In the Twisted Roots of Bodhi Tree is Picture Perfect;|)
ReplyDeleteIt was a very pleasant surprise to come home from work and find my twisted photo in the top ten.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks to you Gator and the other Admins for all the hard work you do within this great group.
I know that there are many fantastic photos to choose from in this talented group and once again I am honoured to have my photo chosen in this second week of the competition.
Every Honourable mention has special merit and Congratulations to all those chosen.
congrats to all the nominees.. good job.. tough choice to make here.
ReplyDeleteAs I twisted the theme about in my mind, time flew by, so I didn't enter a photo, but it was a pleasure to vote.
ReplyDeletei liked nancie,s very much and was going to vote for her's....but at the last min i popped for mark's playground as i loved the colours and it was a more usual everyday feature taken from an unusual angle.
ReplyDeletei liked gators best but it wasnt up there.
Another tough choice this week Gary!! Didn't envy you having to narrow it down. Many thanks for the HM.
ReplyDeletejust looking in this morning and wow we seem to have a very heated 3 way run for the roses here with a 4th very close on their heels...I see the voting is as hard for you all to choose as it was for us

Congratulations to my fellow top ten nominees and to the honorable mentions! Thank you for the nomination and for those who have stopped with congratulations. I am truly honored to belong to such a talented group!
ReplyDeleteIt's an indication of the greatness of the theme and the quality of the entries when we get such a close poll as we have today. I told Gator last night it was going to be this way. You've all done such a great job it was an incredibly tough job to choose just ten and now you all get to see just how hard it is....you only get to vote for one each. Good luck with that!!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to the top ten nominees! All are winners in my heart.
ReplyDeleteAnd, it is truly a delightful surprise to have made Honorable Mention. Thank you so much!
It has been my joy and priviledge, every week, to view the most interesting photos from all of you. xo

ReplyDeleteWow I sure missed it this week didn't I? But after being sick last week I had so much to catch up and snapped lots of twisted pictures both Thursday and Friday and still didn't get time to ANY of them up! Sorry I missed all of the entries! Good luck and congrats and I voted!
ReplyDeleteCongratulation to the top 10 and Honorable mention.
ReplyDeleteI had a blast looking at everyone's entries.
We sure do have some talent in this group. I saw some
amazing photo's.
Good luck.. I am off to vote.
What an honor to be in the honorable mention! Thanks!!!!
ReplyDeletecongrats to all that made top ten and honorable mention
ReplyDeleteTough choice.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for including my photo in the Top Ten - what a shock!!! I'm sorry I haven't responded sooner, but my 3-year-old grandson has pneumonia and I spent all last night in the emergency room with him and my daughter. My photo is among some really terrific entries - congratulations to the nominees - your photos are well-deserving of this honor. Congrats also to the Honorable Mentions. I feel that any one of yours could very easily be a part of the Top Ten. I'm sure that the administrators had a very hard decision to make.
ReplyDeleteBest of luck to you all.
Actually my favorite was the example picture (wood shavings).
ReplyDeletenope we haven't, but we have had some close calls..with just one separating them..:)
ReplyDeleteGood Luck everyone ..
looks like its still anyones game..we still have several votes to come in im sure
ReplyDeletethank you Rob, this was going to be my entry or may have been a unofficial entry the last time twisted was used ...
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for the hard work you are doing and making this a fun and joy for us.
ReplyDeleteGood luck to all the top ten.
what a great selection of talent! It wasn't easy to pick a favorite....;-).....
ReplyDeleteso many wonderful pics! wishing everyone the very best!
ReplyDeleteoh wow this is exciting!!!!
ReplyDeleteI've been so ill that I didn't realize it was contest time , I'm so sorry I missed it , but I have looked at the photo's and voted !! I'm feeling better now, there was never a better time to get pneumonia than during the Olympics it sure helped pass the time away !!
