    Not sure if im entitled to a vote, as im a newbie. Some really nice photos, makes you love January after all! Found it tough to decide but here goes...

    1.) takemore02withit - winter sunset Just by looking at this photo, you can feel the chill of the winter evening, and i feel that this captures the essence of a fine January evening perfectly

    2.) marley farley - sunday sundown What else to say other that its nature at its finest

    3.) shiney - sunrise over the amazon Lovely capture of the setting sun

    though credit really should go to all :)
