Personally I think many of the "honorable mentions" are cooler than the actual winners.
 
And although this is on the CeeB there's a link to NatGeos sight which might have more pics but I couldn't be arsed to unblock their site.

...but the 1st prize nature one is totally METAL!!!

Holy crap!  If you were walking home drunk, you would NEVER find which one of these identical, cookie-cutter places was actually yours!  Talk about ZERO originality or individual identity! 

I like this one more than the winner "Honorable Mention" more than the winner.
 
I wonder if you can get some of these as posters?  A few would look great framed around the house.

"Little boxes on the hillside, little boxes made of ticky tacky..."
 
and so forth...

After looking closely at this picture , the water on the left side looks just like a Shark with an open mouth .

Someone I know lives there and he got horribly drunk one night. In the morning he awoke with a raging hangover, no memory at all of the night before and found himself to be in bed with the most repulsive woman he had ever seen.
 
Phew, he thought......at least I made home safely.
