Thank you to everyone who participated, there were so many great images! Images that tell stories having an emotional impact on the viewer is what I feel photography is all about, so I have truly enjoyed hosting this challenge. I hope it continues for many iterations. Following (in no particular order) are my choices for five finalists, your valuable time to review and vote is greatly appreciated. Voting remains open through Sunday, winner will be posted Monday!
