I took this shot in front of my mailbox just after returning from a photography safari driving all over the place atttempting to capture the perfect desert "weather" image. :)

this one was one of my favourites of the challenge. I'm disappointed to see it rank here, I think it was much better than that, I honestly cannot find a thing in it I would change. Great picture, Steve! :)
Very cool the way you this conveys the effects of weather. On the economy no less. Very creative. I honestly didn't think much of it looking at the thumbnail but once I realized what your message is here the picture becomes a lot better. A perfect 10!
Good idea. (Desperate for "weather" in southern CA, I considered this one as well.) The penny and title give it a unique twist. Something about the overall image doesn't quite apeal to me, yet it's a fairly well done shot. I want to say there's too much clutter, but it fits the title. Or maybe it doesn't. I can't decide, but overall I think you did good.
