    Rob....you are always going to have the haters of this world.The comments and arguments made against the winning images were to put it bluntly,racist at times and plainly ignorant of anything photography related.
    You have the respect of this community.....enjoy your prize.....and well done on a great image!

    Congrats, awesome photo! I must admit I almost enjoyed the comments the people made more than the photos. So what it boils down to, according to them: If you sell your house for a profit, that would make you a professional real estate agent, since you made some money out of it????
