CBF judges reviewed the almost 800 photos submitted this year, and picked 10 of the best for you to judge.
Two photos by John Reitzel from Pennsylvania made the final 10--
-- Marmalade Sky - spectacular colors of the morning sky over the Veterans Memorial Bridge across the Susquehanna River at Wrightsville, York County; and
-- Backlit Egret takes an early-morning strong along the Susquehanna River near Washington Borough and the Conejohela Flats in Lancaster County.
