Putting It Out There


This Sunday, I am entering my very first Photo Contest. It is a small one here at Goose Lake Prairie Nature Center, and the Morris Camera Club is the host for their very first contest competition. I am entering 13 pictures in various catagories so my week has been busy getting the photos chosen, cropped, matted, and the information filled out. This one featured here is my favorite, but thats just me. The photo entries will be on display until August 4th at the center, and I am hoping there will be alot of local photographers entering. They are giving out 1 plaque for Best of Show and plaques for first places in all catagories, plus ribbons for 2nd and 3rd. I am just hoping for some sort of win so that I can say "Award Winning Photographer" in the future for some good reason as yet to be named. Wild Iris Bumble Bee, Teresa's Tree, Bullfrog Reflection, Great Horned Owl Family, and Screech Owl are all of which have been featured here on this blog, along with others that have not appeared as of yet. Wish me luck! I'm kind of excited...

Wish you luck? Having seen your work in person, you don't need luck, you need exposure. The web doesn't do your work justice, and when the public sees the full size images in person, you will have a bigger problem: where to put all the awards.

But just in case: Best of Luck, Hanni!

Your biggest fan.
