First Annual Fireworks Contest WEINER

Thank you, all, for your overwhelming participation in the  

First Annual Fourth of July Fireworks Contest Blog Poll.  

The results were... interesting.

Here's a breakdown of the number of blog readers who commented on their favorite firework snap:
Photo 4:  1 vote
Photo 6:  2 votes
Photo Nine:  2 votes
Photo Five: 3 1/2 ( split vote :) ) 
and the overwheming winner:
Photo Three: with a whopping 7 1/2 votes!  :) 

Now, what's interesting, is that I counted the spit vote on the blog poll,

simply because our trusty judges, Benjamin and Chris,

{Nana disqualified herself as a judge because she watched us pick our favs and knew who took each entry}

couldn't decide either!

I know.  I know.  Real TRUSTY judges these guys are!

I mean, c'mon!!  But they decided to declare a split championship.

Seeing how this was the very first ever in the history of the world

Fourth of July Fireworks Photo Contest, the rules were a little... iffy.

Next year, there will be none of that.

It's ON.

And there WILL be a definitive champion!!

Or we're firing the judges.  

But the split championship was giving to photos ONE and SIX.

With photo FOUR as runner up.

Photo One :  Robbie

Photo Six :  Jess

Photo Four :  Lash

So we actually all ended up with a winner in the top three.  :)  

Our Judges are softies. 

Although, they really didn't know who took each pic.  

:)

Here's who took the others:

Photo Two : Robbie

Photo Three : Jess

Photo Five :  Lash

Photo Seven :  Jess

Photo Eight :  Robbie

Photo Nine :  Lash

I'm taking ideas for a trophy of some sort.
I'm thinking maybe a bottle rocket dipped in bronze.
But I'm up for suggestions :)

Thanks for playing, people :)
