I'm thinking since Sharon is studiously ignoring this thread that it must be her pictures being used  :evil:

Face it Johnny You'd be bragging in every post you made.   :-D  But I think nothing has been said due to a prior to publication release restriction agreement.

That had crossed my mind.  Cindi is my guess.  Anyone starting a pool for this?

I'm thinking LindT from Georgia. Everything she does has been exceptional....

The winner is obviously enjoying their all expenses paid trip to an exotic isle as the winner!!!

That's a good guess too.  She had slipped off my radar and does a lot of camera work on her blog.

I think that Brian B. is right, it is a release restriction, awaiting until the book is published. There are lots of stupid loophills in laws.

BTW.  It was not me, I didn't enter any pictures to Howland for his picture choice for his book.  The mystery thickens, now, who sent their pictures to Howland?  (female, they say, hee, hee).  Beautiful day, greatest of life, health.  Cindi

I'm bumping this until the winner makes themselves known..... I think BB is correct.

I'm complimented that anyone would think it was me, but I didn't even know about the contest, much less enter it!  Can't wait to find out who it is - wonder if it is Becky from Colorado - her pictures are BEAUTIFUL (2wheeler, I think is her name on this forum.)

Someone really ought to tell them that the world of Ayn Rand?s novel was not meant to be aspirational.
