For the final round I asked our photographers to take a shot inspired by Monet. We had shots ranging from his earlier works, to his Impressionist period, to his nearly blind angry years late in his life that were heavy with dark reds and blacks.
The judges all fell in love with the “most Monet” of the shots with the punny title, Bridge Under Peaceful Waters. Congratulations!
The community had different ideas and with some of the most community votes we had all cycle, the winner by one vote was The Wise Trees Stand Sleeping in the Cold. Congrats to you as well!
And that’s it for Scenic Cycle 4! I’ll be putting together a series of galleries to reveal all of the photographers this afternoon, so you can see who contributed each shot, before the final winner is announced!
