Excellent photos puffer-peeps! It was hard for me to make a decision, they were all so good, but in the end, it can be only one puffer (photo). Too much good competition for the likes of my crappy pictures.

Photoshopping to clean up/intensify is perfectly acceptable, as long as the content is all "real" and not faked.
Congrats Mike, I am really running behind with getting you up on the home page, my "to do" list is a mile long this week.
