I'm a Winner


The image above was just chosen as an Honorable Mention in the Landscape Category of Cowboys and Indians' [magazine] 2008 photo contest. Unfortunately Honorable Mention doesn't get the $500 that first place in each category wins, or the paid photo assignment that the grand prize winner receives. But it's recognition in a beautiful magazine and I'll take that over the "We had many wonderful entries and it was hard to choose..." letter. The contest will be published in the March, 2008 issue. I don't know if it will be shown online, but it would be unfortunate if not because the magazine costs something like $8/issue.

On another photography note, this is the time of year that I love to visit msnbc's website to view their Year in Pictures segment that takes many of the Week in Pictures winners from the last year, puts them in a slideshow, and allows you to vote for your favorite at the end. It's a difficult, wrenching process because there are some spectacular photographs, but you have to vote in the next couple days to count.
