          After quite a bit of deliberation and discussion @Giles @Alex @jordanscollected and myself have arrived at a conclusion.

          The awards for best pic and best portfolio were especially difficult and there were a number of contenders for each.

          Here is our final decision:

          1. Best portfolio - @weftyarn

          True to the theme, varied original content and motifs, all round excellent effort

          2. Best individual pic - @mitchellvilla

          For this insanely cool shot:

          3. Funniest pic - @Kasi

          For this:

          Congratulations gents!

          Thanks to everyone who took part. This was mostly about getting to know each other a little better, and that has been achieved by all you good folks in quite some style. This is a wonderful thread for the ages.

              That's pretty smart — clearly @Kasi would haunt your dreams if he wasn't appeased 😉

                              Nothing really to add to the congratulations and thanks except more of the same. Even for people (like me) who never had any prospects this was a lot of fun.

                                Wow!!! this came unexpected, really. There were so many phenomenal contributions!

                                I don’t even know what to say except that I just feel honored and happy.
                                This has really quickly turned from a contest into just having fun and getting to know each other.

                                Already looking forward to many more threads and posts
                                and maybe even making it to Gosport for the 20th anniversary 😃

                                Thanks, y’all!

                                    Im also still blown away by @Gammaman Xray.

                                    @Jett129 Really glad you liked my pictures!
                                    having seen all the good stuff here, I encourage everyone to post in the photography thread. 😃

                                          Ha thanks! Yea, I do all the school dropoffs and pickups, and am with at least one of the kids for the entire day. Once every couple of weeks or so, I get the whole day to myself while the youngest is with a sitter. It's such a glorious feeling. I used to stress and plan how to maximize the day and be the most productive. Lately, I've just started doing whatever I felt like doing that day in the moment. It's so simple, but way more satisfying.

                                          Wants List:
                                          IHSH-20-Red, XL
