I found this challenge to be the hardest one so far. Very hard to pick a favorite!

Very nice capture! If I had to pick one work to describe this capture, it would be "peaceful." In my top picks! Good Luck!

There was just one other shot that edged out this for my #1 vote, but otherwise - this is an excellent picture! All the elements work very well here. Great scene and details.

Thank you all so much! I'm blessed to live in an area where all you have to do is point the camera and the rest is done for you!

This is so beautiful. The sky is interesting and has wonderful color and I love the mist toward the ground. Very beautiful and well taken.

I like the mood of this. re your Extra Info and this ( or similar) challenge: I find it hard to decide between my favourite photos and my Best Shots as they aren't always the same!

This is such a beautifully idyllic scene. I can almost feel the mist rising off the grass.

A lovely moment ... the layers of interest are so good. Not easy to expose this scene I think. I love it as it is and I think a square crop to the left could also work. In my top 3.

Let me share a secret - picking a favourite to enter IS the Challenge!!! Lol!
This has all the hallmarks of a best photo, a fine landscape defined by lighting, colour, mood, and focal subject. A really good effort.

This is a most beautiful natural looking shot that fortunately has not been pp'd to death. It's good to see that nature can be so beautiful without our interference. Love the feeling of freshness and I can almost smell the damp grass. In my favourites for sure.
