Nature Light Photo

Published! Kinda

I took pictures for the school’s Comedy Sportz team a few weeks ago.

After posting the pictures on Smugmug I got a lot of pictures viewed and the visits to my site went WAY up, but I thought that was going to be about it and at the same time, one of the parents asked if they could use some of the images for publicity. I said sure and forgot all about it.

Flash forward two weeks. I got an email with a link to the Press Enterprise in the inland empire in southern California.

The link was to an article about the Comedy Sportz team. And there were some of my images!

Plus, I got photo credit. How can I argue?

Here is the link to the article in the Press Enterprise.

OH! Ya! You Placed Second!!

In October, I went to the first annual Morro Bay Photo Fest. It was full of workshops, photo opportunities, and other photography oriented experiences.

Part of the festival was a photo contest on Flickr. I entered two photos into the contest and moved on with life. After the deadline, I checked the site and, alas, I was not the winner. Oh, well. So goes life.

Then, about two days ago, I get an email from a volunteer stating that I had placed second in the contest and giving me a site to take a look at for more information.

After looking at the SLO Coast Journal site, I had, in fact, placed second in the contest!!!

Considering it was a workshop for photographers and some of the photographers were very good, I think second place is pretty good.

Here is the image I entered into the contest.

Please tell me what you think.
