March Photo of the Month
by KaceyOkay, here we go with some FABULOUS photos for the March Photo of the Month contest. I do not know how anyone is going to be able to pick just one of these. They are all fabulous. So, in no certain order, here we go.

From Cheryl St. John. Is that not adorable, or what? And the lighting is across it? Love it. And the texture on the throw. Great shot. Cheryl is a writer too.
Kate from Chronicles of a Country Girl. The color (colorS) in this shot are fantastic. So many shades. I could take pictures like that if I had a macro lens… Maybe.

From CrazyDaisy. The title of this photo is “The Last Snow?” Aren’t we all asking ourselves that question? Great winter shot.

From Ellen at Happy Wonderer. Look at that! Okay, I’m a bit afraid of heights, so I don’t think I could have gotten this shot, but it is wonderful! The color, the composition. Makes me want to go drive up that coast.

From Jeannelle at Midlife by Farmlight. Title “A Branched Steeple” I love how the steeple contrasts with the barren winter trees, as well as the hint of light bouncing off the steeple. (as an aside, I love the photo she has up for her header photo on her blog right now!)

From Mary at Little Red House. Title “Pink”. The lighting on this one is wonderful! And the flower is pink. Extra points for pink.
This is a straight out of the camera shot!!

From Melissa. Title “Joyful” Melissa is a writer friend of mine. This is one of those photos you’d keep forever and remember forever. Do they not look like they are having the best time? Does that photo not just scream LOVE? Don’t you just want to be there with them? Melissa just got a new camera so I’m expecting a lot of photos on her blog now.

This is from Mental Pause Mama. I want to be in this photo too. I love the drink with the beach in the background. Such a great way to capture a fun vacation. (why didn’t she invite us to go along?)

Here is mine. I know you were hoping I’d pick the one where I was falling on my rear shooting the easter eggs, but no such luck. I considered the shot of SuperGuy’s butt when he was washing the car. I think that’s my favorite this month. I’m such a shallow person. But I settled on this “Deer in the Morning Light.”
Thanks to all who participated!
Okay, vote here. Good luck. It’s going to be really REALLY hard to pick just one! Remember, this is an important contest! Send all your friends over to vote for your photo. You’re going to get really famous from this contest! Honest, have I ever lied to you?

What great pics!
Awesome pics, Kacey!
I was torn between several, but finally had to make myself settle. Alas, I would have spent more time arguing with myself.
The pictures are great!!!
I love ALL of those photos!
Oh, my, these are incredible.
Amazing!! Very very hard decision!
Wow. These are some great shots! Ok, I’m not going to vote for mine ‘cuz, well, I’d feel bad about doing that! But trying to pick another one of hthe others will be hard because I love them all!
WOW! So many. I’ll also skip over mine and try to decide which other one to pick! They are all great!
You’re right - these are AWESOME! Oh, I can’t wait to see flowers blooming again *sigh*
I love Mary’s “pink”. It’s incredible! I love them all. This will be difficult.
weren’t these pictures just wonderful this month? I mean, it’s almost impossible to choose just one!
Kacey,
I’m concerned about something. I thought it would be cool to get people interested and get lots of votes. So I posted for people to come to your site and vote. I told them I didn’t need them voting for my picture, and didn’t care who they voted for but just wanted to drum up interest in this photo contest post. I think it’s interesting and we can get more people who are interested in photography to enter. Unfortunately, I’m afraid they’ve been voting for mine. And I feel as if I have given myself an unfair advantage.

Or maybe I’m just being silly.
Great pictures! I have to say “Pink” is my favorite!
Kate, you’re just being silly …
Hey anyone could have left a link on their blog. Alls fair in this race for fame and fortune!! Great fame and fortune! 
Kacey, where did you get the html for the voting? Do you think blogger would support it? I think it’s really cool and I’d like to do something with it.
Right now, with my dial-up (don’t say it, I know) I can’t use the voting that blogger offers. And I can’t open people’s sites that have it embedded. It keeps taking me to a google search page. But this works in my dial-up and I have no problem with it. Any thoughts?
This is a Wordpress Plugin Kate, called wp-polls, so it wouldn’t work on Blogger. We could talk you into switching to a Wordpress blog though to show off your pretty pictures!
Man, dial up. I feel for you. Drives me nuts when I have to use dial up.
Amazing photos! I’m feeling very inspired!
Suggest voting in categories: people, buildings, nature (sub-categories: animals, flowers, landscape). since I would like to see ALL recognized- great artistic talents.
JOYFUL got my vote because I adore red-heads, this celebrates generational FUN, plus the lady looks like someone I’d like to be around.
my niece would vote for the martini glass; I’m partial to ANY water (ocean,sea,lake, creek,waterfall,pond,etc), see deer frequently in our snowy woods, am attracted to color, especially purple and pink, adore sleeping children (over awake misbehaving ones! ROFL) and am a fan of architecture, churches and trees. so you shutter-bugs hit ALL my favorites!

I’m so pleased my photo made it into the mix. I wasn’t that close to the edge so I think you could have been ok up there. All the photos here are great. If I could have made it up that far without spilling it I would have put a martini in the photo too
