This one is tough to vote on. #5, #13 and #19 are my favorites for DOF and for composition..... But I'm going to go with #19 since the dof adds to the composition slightly more than the other two. Good luck everyone!

Homo olympus is a group administrator Homo olympus says:

There is something special about #3 that others don't have... The image is clean and simple. The composition is unique and complete. The exposure and color cast are great. The use of negative space is the most effective. The sharpness is also wonderful. #3 gets my pick. It's the most 'complete package' among the 31 entries.
