Since this is a head-to-head Vote Off, does that mean the winner will be the loser?

Awesome photos all around. As I said to Darryl in a PM, donating the gift certificate to an elementary school teacher to grow a few plants in his classroom.

Cool. I was checking to see who won this earlier this week.

Congrats Peter that is a wonderful picture. It was so hard to choose between all of the pictures that were submitted!

BTW it's cool that you are donating the prize!
