Just had to share....

I just had to share this with people I knew would understand.

Although there were only 275 photos submitted to our local city photo contest one of my photo's placed first. I was so excited to get the news yesterday. I entered last year (my very first contest) and came second. So not a large contest but still it made me feel good.

Congradulations. I love the atmospheric nature of this shot. The focus seems a little soft but that might well be in keeping the overall mood of the image. :judge: :thumbsup: :woohoo:

Thanks Charles

I was a bit surprised as well that they chose this one. It was a foggy morning so was meant to be soft but I had some better pictures than this one. As did all the other people. Last years second place shot was a foggy morning as well. I guess I just hit their mood with both of these shots. Oh well, I will gladly take the cash and the exposure.
