Rune is right that the voting for each photo is still 'live' after the competition has ended. The general process is:
1) The public votes and ratings select the top ten photos (as of last week in this case)
2) I then email the owners of these photos for permission, and to choose which photo they wish to enter if they have more than one in the top 10
3) Our judges choose the top 3 winners and highly commended from the photos that have been entered. The positions are still closely based on the voting, ie photo number 10 won't get 1st prize, unless the nine above declined to enter
