Welcome back, everyone!

In honor of our first day back, I am pleased to announce the winner of our photo contest.

Joanne Russell, congratulations!

It was a tough call, with most of our judges picking a different photo for first place, but Joanne garnered the most "top three" votes.  It is hard to argue with the deeply autumnal appeal of brown acorns in the leaves, and the photo is well lit and crisply detailed.  Very nice work.

Well done everyone!

Our winner will receive this book. 

 I thought it would be a good one rather than an autumn book, given the winner's interest in photography.
