This is very difficult to just select 3 and then to order them...

skiwillgee - 3 points

thunderstone - 2 points

orbital - 1 point

I would also like to give honorable mentions to:

peedy, vangogh, vorban and mysteral - in no particular order.

I found that I enjoyed the backstories - when people gave them - almost as much as the images, and when people had excellent images, good back stories and details of what went into each image, I found that supremely satisfying.

Each of the honorable mentions had something that appealed to me, as did most of the images submitted, and congratulations to all who entered.

I have no idea why I picked the ones I did because awarding 3 places seemed inadequate. 

There were several that should have a 1st place for different reasons.  Vorban for that background planet.  Orbital for the colors.  ThunderStone for the emotion.

Actually drawbridge's entry should be in my choices also, because of the purposeful composition and lines to draw ones eyes to the background spire. 

There are some artist that ALWAYS raise the bar for the rest of us.
