Last week, we asked all of you to submit your favorite fall photos to the McHenry County Patch sites.
We got a great response — thank you to everyone who posted pictures of everything from beautiful fall scenery to children picking out pumpkins to scenic apple orchard photos.
We've posted the five finalists in the contest and are now looking to you to let us know which one is your favorite. The photo with the most votes will win a $20 gift certificate to the McHenry County restaurant of their choice.
Scroll through the five photos we've selected as finalists and vote for your favorite by commenting below. The photos are labeled photo one, two, three, etc. and you can identify your favorite photo as such in the comments' section below. Only one vote per registered user is allowed.
We will keep the vote going through 12 p.m. Friday. A winner will be announced Sunday morning.
