Here are the basic voting rules:

The poll will remain open for one week (or as long as I feel necessary so that everyone has opportunity to vote) .
You may vote for your own photo.
Each member will be allowed TWO votes, you can change your votes at any time while the poll is open.  Results will only be shown after the poll period has ended.

So, without further delay, here it is.  These are your POTM winners for the past 12 months:

I have always felt that the AzAP POTY was a very prestigious award.  It would appear that voting ended nearly a month ago, but no winner has been declared.  That is both sad and unfortunate.

Subject to correction, it would appear our fearless leader Joe has won the prize.  Let me offer my sincere congratulations to Joseph for such a fine photograph and being the "Top Dog" amongst such a fine group of images/photographers.  Well done!

Thanks guys!

Really stoked on this, but at the same time, I was really pulling for Ned's dead-nuts symmetrical top-side shot of an inverted F-35 in afterburner and streaming wingtip vortices to take it.  I mean, that scene checks so many boxes of awesomeness before the shutter even clicks, but on top of all of it, Ned had the forethought to put himself precisely where he needed to be to catch it, and when the opportunity presented itself, he had the skill to absolutely nail the execution.  Not sure if non-mods can see the vote totals, but it was only a one-vote difference between my shot and Ned's, so I'm not the only one who saw it.

That said, thanks again!  The story behind this shot is actually pretty ridiculous.
