Happy New Year to all, and many thanks for all the beautiful viewings of images.
There is no particular order in ranking as they are picked from beginning to end of week.
There is now a banner in the Photo Gallery for easier finding.
This also gives us a chance to showcase some of those who have not got the views they deserve.
Selections for Dec 26th-Jan 01_06
**by the Photo Team

Enjoy

Once again, a fine selection very close to my own choice (yeah that's my weekly favorite personal game... kind of lotto... I try to guess as much as possible which images are going to be honored...at least for the weeks where I have time to browse....) So this week, I got 23 (on the 40 ! ) a good score isn't it ?! Therefore, my personal congrats to the 40 artists and my thanks to the photo team for putting them all so well together ! :~)

Thank you and well done to the rest of you. btw. One member thought my photo of the door in "Prague_003" was to a gas chamber, lol. I could understand why. The ironic truth is it is a side door to a place of worship. I would also like to thank the photography team! Cheers GaWa

Wow I am so honored to be featured here... I guess I can say I never saw this coming :-P. I'm pretty new to photography so I'm really excited about this :-D. Great photos and congrats to everyone else who got picked!

I love to meet new folks who arre unfamiliar to me on the forum. Likely, with my "every morning before work" quick look at new gallery posts, I have seen those images.

I am surprised how many images I have seen and viewed full sized then again pleased to see the shots I have missed in a quick look.

This is a viable and vital part of the forum and good for all.

If you are a photographer who has not been part of the forum, welcome! : ) Glad to see nice work I would otherwise possibly miss. TomDart.
