    I'm with Realist favouring shots 1 and 4. I too like the mood and it really has that western Canada country look to it. Unfortunately that is the problem it looks too much country, as I don't get a feel of small town. Thus I'm not sure it fits the the theme. As for the last picture, it does fit the theme, but like you I'm not too fussy with it.

    I hope these comments haven't added to your frustration and stress. Just relax and sleep on it and I'm sure some great idea will come to you.

    I have to agree about the pictures not necessarily fitting the theme, but I really like the long view in the second one, and the way the distance turns the mountains blue.

    Beautiful perspective in the 2nd one. The lines in the 3rd are also great.

    Very nice Matt. I also love #2 for the line work of the fence just draws the viewers eye in so strongly, and the lovely background, with that amazing sky you always seem to have out there. Just beautiful.
    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!

    I agree with HBG. I also quite like the first one.

    As for the competition it's neat that it's open to interpretation. But I got a chuckle over your comment about needing to calm down....

    Thanks, all, and asnow: methinks this is just the name they are giving this park. There is an area nearby called the Spray Lakes in the Kananaskis, so I assume it is because of that they chose the name .. then of course it could be a water park, for all I know ...
