 My son James
He and his sisters were playing in the hose and of course afterwards he had to go play in his pile of dirt in the back yard. I found him making a road for his cars!

This was my only 10 in this challenge. I figured if I didn't finish in the ribbons I would have liked this image to have made it to the top.

Thanks for giving us a different view of the subject.

Love the composition of this shot!! He is so focused on what he's doing. Reminds me so much of my nephew when he was little.

Alright, listen I was so excited to see how this photo finished. Me and my wife both, and we were both appaulled to see it not finish at least in the top 10. I mean still a good place, but I picked it as my only 10 in the contest, along with only 2 9's, and 6 8's. Me and my wife both are convinced that overall the voters are way to shallow. The only thing i can think of is maybe people didn't see the construction value in it. At any rate, congratulations for a fantastic shot, and I am most certain I am not the only one who thinks that.

OK, you absolutely broke the mold. This photo almost makes it unfair to the rest, by far the best shot yet. You have the uniqueness of idea in check, technique in check, colors in check, clarity, depth, and subject seem all in perfect order.
