The merits of each image are determined by the membership and voting visitors. There's more information about this contest and the new Lenzr vote collection protocol on the Lenzr blog, and this contest is detailed in Solarline in the age of portable solar power posted August 8th, 2010.

Ah sorry to hear that. These voting contests always seem sketchy to me. So much can go wrong so quickly. Hence I stay away from most voting ones.

Good luck though, I hope you at least get a secondary prize.

I know Eric won fair and square and I personally love his image.

we work hard to keep it as fair as possible and we are always evolving the process

the other end of the spectrum is when the sponsors select the winners, and in my opinion that's always subject to extraordinary conditions and a rainbow of variables other than the photo's quality.

I wrote about all the winners of August September 2010 photo contest on the Lenzr blog.

As posted in the winner's thread, I was lucky enough to have won an iPad by getting first place in another category, and I agree Eric's photo is gorgeous, my heart was in mine though :)

I applaud lenzr (Rob) for working so hard to keep the contest fair and honest and am sure they will put even more improvements in place next time for the voting system. I'm sure it isn't easy to keep it all on the up and up when so many people are out there finding ways to circumvent whatever restrictions you put in place.

The blog entry was an interesting read... even if you did diss my photo ;)
Hopefully you will be shipping the iPad soon?

Laura,
The answer is YES and let's make it clear to everyone reading that the prize you won was for another contest, View From The Roof.
There was no 2nd place prize for Morning Sunshine, now has there been for any recent Lenzr photo contest. There should be probably, but there isnt... yet
