Ok, as an amateur photographer who worked —and struggled— on this challenge (the baseballs are mine), my big kudos to ALL of these submissions. I know how tough it is to get the smoke in the picture :-) —- I am also super surprised many of you choose this one as your first challenge. Amazing job! — They're not all…

@WestwoodDenizen: Wow. I was thinking the exact same thing... The past three challenges have been quite discouraging... I guess I'll have to try!

@Loui: Good job Loui. I fight every week for making the lead shot :-)... As I always say, there's always next week.

@FauxReal: Do it guys! I've been doing challenges for few weeks and learned a ton through it...

@BobotheTeddy: Thanks!!!! (and I totally agree...)

@Celtic1888: Hey Celtic. I am glad you like it! The light doesn't show up because that is the BACK of the traffic light.

@spizzak: Agreed.

I like #22 as well! —Good job! I am also really happy I made it to the winner's circle! —Next goal: To be the lead shot!

@GabrielLuis: AGREED!

@Bobbles!: That's awesome.

Great job everyone! Kudos to 4,12,15,19,21,34,35,57 and the winner (and also my favorite) 58. I agree that the 'concept' is just *brilliant*.

@Mark J Pacheco: This one is amazing.

@Hoaxs: I got mine 4 weeks ago and I've been doing the challenges since. I've learned a lot, and it is a super fun way to know your camera better. Looking forward to your submissions!

Good job guys! F1 (4), Jeep (8), Cable car (11), Back to the Future-ish profile pic (25), Yellow plane (33), Replica swiss goggles (44), Merry Go Round (50) and Roller Derby (55) are all awesome!

My faves: Peanut, Lilly, Savannah, Dillon, Bruno, Calcifer, Juki, Dakerr, Ziggy, Ezra, Niko, Daffney, Renault, Betty, Moxie, frogs, Ziggy.

Wow. A lot of great pics! Some of my favorites: Camera meets bee, dual horizon, ferris wheel, poolside drink (very refreshing), Battery park (loved the simplicity of it), Sbux breakfast (awesome shots and color), metal and bikes, framed blooming and dead flowers, and green fiancee coffee cup.
