At long last, it is time to announce the winner of the “beauty” contest portion of this scavenger hunt.
We had a lot of fun being arbitrary and capricious – to a certain point. Rumi and I judged most of the days, but sometimes we called in guest judges. What were the standards by which we judged? Well, arbitrary and capricious, of course.
But seriously, for me it was often looking through the photos, figuring out which ones sparked a certain emotion in me upon immediately viewing it, and then figuring out exactly why I felt that emotion.- For instance, when Indiana submitted a picture of the sun for her sphere entry, I was surprised and amused!
- Camiller and catedrew made me laugh with their waterway entries.
- I felt an adrenaline rush when I saw AlanA’s 18% grade photo for roadway.
- DCAKen’s equating of a School sign to Pisces for his entry was creative.
- Bigredboiler kept wowing us with mountains, like his national park entry.
- Serdar’s submission for war memorial included a really clear shot of the constellation Orion.
- Nadine found a bright teal house in a line of somewhat monochromatic houses for her painted lady entry.
Etc. etc. etc.! If you haven’t read the reasons why we chose different photos, make sure that you check it out on the tally calendar.
TWO people chose the beauty prize option for their 19 March submission. My panel of bikey people who are not participating in Freezing Saddles chose Serdar’s photo as the winner of that day.

This is a really cool shot! Serdar was already one point behind the lead, and thanks to the extra 5 points, he came out on top and won!
Congratulations, Serdar! Your prize is a piece of art by me! I will be creating this within the next month and reaching out to you for info on how to get it to you.
Thank you, everyone! We had a lot of fun judging all of your photos in this scavenger hunt.
