A hearty congratulations goes out to 1 photo guy for his winning photo titled “Natural Bridge Virginia” that he added to our DigitalPhotographyBlogs.com group pool on Flickr. His photo won for the last week’s “vacation” contest because of the natural beauty, awesome reflections and deep, rich colors he captured in this great shot while on vacation in Virginia. Thanks, 1 photo guy, for the submission and to the rest of you for your participation!

This week’s theme is focused on exciting and exhilarating summer storms. Look through your archives to see what you’ve got or just get out there and start shooting.
