don't cry! There are tons of contest here to enter your lovely photos in. I thought I would have made it in the top 25 with my RIP by the Christmas tree, but I didn't. I had people sending me conversations asking if she made it in.

Someday, we will make it in.

That was a really good picture!

personally I am happy whenever the results will come in because I know that the BYC staff are working so hard to judge all the pictures. After all, there are almost 200 pages on this thread, with pictures on almost every page; and when it comes to judging between a super good pic and another super good pic, that has got to take a long time and a lot of thought I bet. I am super thankful for all of the BYC staff and volunteers who make contests, and everything else, possible.

Yes you are right..I thoroughly enjoyed looking at all the photos..So many beautiful girls and boys..
I just had such a longing to win something..I m a bit childish

Sorry, I did not mean to direct my post towards you lol- just anyone I guess haha! No I agree, it can definitely be so hard to wait for the results of something that you've been longing to win. And no you are not childish, everyone does it!

I am happy for whoever wins as well! As much as I really wanted to get in and was happy with some of my photos and I had high hopes for them! But seeing the others that were on the contest I knew the contest was going to be rough and that the chances were high I wouldn’t get in! And I’m excited to see who wins and to buy the calendar for 2026!
