Finalists announced in Name That Photo contest

Two days ago, I posted this photo and asked you to come up with a name for it, a caption, a funny sentence, or anything that would make someone smile reading it.

DSC_0478 copy 2

And you didn’t disappoint. I chuckled reading all 114 of them and it was tough narrowing it down to just five. Remember, this is subjective. What I may find funny, you might not. But it’s my contest, right?

Here are my top five picks:

1. Border Patrol

2. Here’s looking at you, kid.

3. Mr. Demille – I’m ready for my close up.

4. Baa . . . Ram . . . Ewe!

5. Be vewwy quiet. I’m looking for a little grey squirrel.

NOW IT’S YOUR TURN!

Help me choose a winner by leaving a comment letting me know your favorite line. Sorry, but I don’t have a fancy polling widget. I’ll tally the votes and announce the winner on Saturday morning. Winner will receive an 8 x 12 Standout print from mpix.com.

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions. I’ll be back tomorrow with the results!

    Jack is COMPLETELY devastated that his nomination - Ozymandias - was not one of the top five and so just for that, he's going to mount a vigorous write-in campaign. :)

    The tall guy votes for #2 - but he's a traitor anyway!

    "Remember, this is subjective. What I may find funny, you might not." You're right, Kate. None of these are very original or very funny, out of all the dozens you had to choose from.

    Sorry ... gotta be honest. That fabulous picture of George deserved much better. :-)
