Smithsonian 4th Annual Photo Contest includes the thorny photo above in its finalists.
Many thanks to everyone who entered our 4th Annual Photo Contest. Our editors spent many hours carefully reviewing 8,500 photographs from around the world.
We have selected 10 Finalists in each of the five categories — Americana, The Natural World, People, Altered Images, Travel — and you can now view those photographs here.
We plan to reveal the Grand Prize Winner and the five Category Winners in a summer 2007 issue of Smithsonian. Likewise, we will reveal the winners here, on our Web site.
More image noodling for a bright gray day:
- More of Damjan Voglar's photos.

- Strangers in My Garden (enlarge it)
Paintings by Henryk Fantazos. They are "fantastic."
- Vintage photo gallery at Consumer Reports. Thumbnail reviews of the debuts and duds, too.
Second chances: TV Links: Watch all sorts of shows on your monitor -- Twilight Zone to the latest current series. Cartoons -- a 1943 Tom & Jerry -- or anime, movies, music videos, sports.
If you're looking for a specific, half-remembered 1959 Twilight Zone episode, try browsing The Original Twilight Zone Episode Guide.
Recent series can be found here, too.
