Top 10 WeeklyFstop Photos: Gold

The end of this color trifecta of themes is another great one featuring a precious metal in a number of different forms. The wide variety and quality of submissions in this list make it easily worth its weight in gold.

The tale of the Midas Touch sheds lights on how greed can blind us from what is truly important. To me, the most important thing is easily my family. I recently had the pleasure of blowing my ACL playing soccer which resulted in surgery and now has me pretty laid up recovering. I have been at the complete mercy of everyone around me and realize now that my health is a critical factor in making sure my family runs smoothly. Getting back to playing in the yard with my boys is now my top priority. I'm confident I'll be there.

Gold is a perfect fit for a photo theme because it has so many possibilities. I hope you like what we've come up with.

Konrad has been bringing it the last few weeks and this shot no exception. I would dare say it is pure gold. Love the angle, the coordinated colors, the hood texture, and the great reflection in the glasses. Thanks for such a perfect submission.
