With this photo, my lurking days are over.

My first thought looking at this is "Really?" I do give some credit here as at least it isn't a picture of a horse tripping over a jump, but compared to past winners, there is nothing remarkable about this picture. As a matter of fact, I'm only a decent photographer and I could have taken a shot like this. So there can only be one reason this won....

Look at the thing. freddymo may be joking but this picture makes it look like Zenyatta won. They appear to be near the edge of the lighting, so it is clearly shot past the line when she actually did get past. Does this have an official name like "Blame Crosses the Line First but Zenyatta Wins Anyway"?

I'd love to see the honorable mentions if anyone knows if/where they may be posted.

Freddymo is always either joking or drunk.....or both.
