The Gathering
by Linda Kelley
Panama City
I have lived in Florida since 1978. The sunsets and the egrets have always intrigued me, and I always stop and smell the flowers
when I see them.


2nd place winner $50
by Peggy Montesano
West Palm Beach
I love MY FLORIDA filled with flowers -- rain to water them, warmth to nurture them, sunshine to show off their beautiful colors.


3rd place winner $25
Circle of Life
by Betsy O'Neill
Tavares
I saw a flamingo on my honeymoon in Florida in 1973. At that time I would never have believed I’d be living in Florida someday.



Viewers' Choice $25
by San Juanita (Sam) Lopez Panama City
Amazing Sunsets. Emerald Shores. White Sandy Beaches. Sand Dunes. Sea Oats and Warm Breezes. That is my Florida!


by Donna Gibbens
Panama City
Canadian winters make me appreciate "MY FLORIDA". Palm trees, seashells, water and dolphins - surrounded by blue water and bright sunshine -- who could ask for more?


Bayou Sunrise
by Sarah Hough
Lynn Haven
Magnificent sunrises over the bayou, walks on white sugar sand beaches, solitude in quiet places but, most of all, wonderful friends.
