Colton.

As cool as Benham's photo is, I can't deal with the scraggly pine near the old dead tree. Who thought this pine was worth saving by putting up support wires?

Bill,

I strongly suspect it is a cypress. It certainly is not a pine.
I further suspect that analysis of the dead tree shows it may topple soon, and they are in the process of replacement.
I further suspect that support wires a necessary given the wind evidence shown by the shape of the dead tree.

Have a good'un.

Benham's picture is very thought provoking- if one were to guess his teeshots location by his gait,body expression,the ball would not be  on the green, but only Mike could answer that question. In any case this is a superb picture that deserves to be framed and displayed on the wall in Mike's study/library.                                          Jack

My favorite photo is Jim Colton's scorecard from the Ben Cox 108 (post 41 of the b-side thread).
That was an unbelievable achievement on so many levels, and it's fun to look at all the details on that scorecard.

But, Sven has selected a nice bunch here.
#8 gets my vote.

What talent.  Superb photos.

I vote for Mike Benham's black and white photo.  Well done, Mike.

Great to see both Kinloch and Ballyneal make the final cut.  What great places.

Merry Christmas.

Mike Benham's. 

One of my life's wishes is to see that hole. 

Sorry to my friend Jim. Your photo was pretty epic.  Who took it?
