The turn out for this round of the tag challenge was disappointingly low, 8 photographers with a total of 9 photos. I hate to think that at #159, the tag challenge might have gone tired and boring so maybe it's time to get it retired or perhaps put it on the shelf until such time as it garners interest again. It is too bad because it is an excellent go-to challenge for me when my creativity or mojo goes awol -- for some people, too, I would guess. Or maybe the next host would be a more convincing host than me. At any rate, whether this be the last or not, I am rewarding all the participants by putting their efforts before you to choose the winner. Here they are in the order they were posted.

Thank you, Liz, Joy, Kali, Katy, Helen, Ann, Laura and Shanne for your entries; they are much appreciated.
You have until Thursday, April 4, 2019 at midnight (Toronto/New York time) to cast your votes, after which I shall tally the result and announce the winner.
One of the problems for the tag challenge this time was fitting it in around Rainbow month, and a lot of us were taking part in that - I had three goes at creating an entry that I could use. Maybe retrying it on a month when there aren't so many people taking part in a month long challenge will work?
@shannejw - actually the turnout had been rather poor the last two years, mostly with participation from the same people loyal to the tag challenge. the average entries posted was 8 to 10 and there was even an edition where there were only 5 entries, i think mid last year. it's up to the next winner to decide whether to get on with the next one or perhaps put this in hiatus for a while until we get enough queries to have it resurrected.

PS -- it would be a shame for this challenge to go away...maybe your comments will encourage us all to get into it again.
