Contest Images I'm considering

In general, I don't like the idea of contests.  Most of the time it seems like a colossal waste of time, and a money making scheme for the organization sponsoring the event.  You know the old saying, opinions are like noses, everyone has one and they all smell. [At least that's expurgated version].  But one of the things they do accomplish is to get your art work out there and maybe someone will notice, even if you don't win.  Here are some images I like and may spend some time working on to submit to critical review.
