Voting Thread

This is the voting thread for the exhibition.
Please use this thread to vote for your two favorite entries from each participant (including yourself!) who has 3 or more photos in the CYC 2021 Thumbnail Thread!

To keep things simple, lets stick to the main 7 photos, feel free to comment on the outtakes for those who have posted thumbnails of them.

However, there aren't too many of us.  So lets each pick a Best Pic for 3 points and a second best for 1 point. (A bit like in a Dxyum photo contests)

So, the format will be: (for example)
@@mikey2000: 3pts: (then add the photo number for "best in set")
@@mikey2000: 1pt: (add the photo number for "runner up")
@@Comments:
