I Actually WON Something in my Home Town...
Jan 17^th, 2008, 11:06pm

My Photograph (which is also featured on GCU) won the "PHOTO OF THE MONTH" contest in our local Newspaper. I was thrilled!! Even though I haven't sold any....I'm still so very excited!!! Grin

Had to brag, had to brag..... Cool

EL

you can view it here: Cape Arago Sunset, Charleston, OR ("Tall Grass" ...I didn't name it TALL GRASS, the Newspaper did).

You go ahead and brag! brag! brag!
you have earned the right!
I'd be on every site telling everyone if I won anything.
It's a great pic and I'm not suprised it won a comp
What was the theme for the comp? you never said.
So we're just going to party and bask in your glory.
Well done.
(I won a bottle of wine once on a raffle but nothing as great as this!)

I just had to brag Wendy...it was an amatuer photographer contest....anyone could enter an original un-altered photograph and had it to be taken in a specific area on the southern Oregon coast.

It's nice to hear when someone's cheeks are hurting from smiling so big - and rightfully so. Congratulations! Great way to start the year off! Cheers, Lisa Charlton
