WOW, I am soooooooooo totally blown away by this, W - O - W. There were soooooooo many wonderful photos that were posted by sooooooo many wonderful photographers, that I was hoping just to place somewhere. W - O - W, seriously, I am having a very hard time believing that that is my name in the Grand Prize slot, W - O - W.

Thank you to my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, whatever abilities that I may have came from Him.

Thanks to PT & Alex and ALL of the sponsors that made this possible.

Congratulations to Photobod, MajorMagee, Lori G, Jordanmacrae, Macbeth Photography, Crystal, Karl Wertanen, Chasrich, Cre8tivefix and Turbogirl.

W - O - W, I am still in shock, W - O - W. I've just recently ( a little over a year ago), got back into this passion from my youth, that I never pursued, as I was always advised that you can't make a living doing that, you need to get a real job. I did that was moderately successful for a while until life threw me a few curves and I decided that I needed to pursue some of the things that I believe God made me passionate about when I was young but never followed through on. This is my 1st DSLR a used Nikon d3000 with just the basic kit lens 18 - 55mm. I have been experimenting, getting familiar with the camera and how to use it. So, I decided to enroll in NYIP so I could actually learn how to become a Professional Photographer and hopefully make a living doing this passion. I just recently finished Unit 1 of my classes and about to start Unit 2. I never in a million years expected to win anything in this contest, no less the Grand Prize, W - O - W, Praise God, W - O - W. I'm sorry, I keep rambling on like I've won the Powerball Lottery or something, but y'all have no idea what this means to me, what a boost to my confidence this is and confirmation of my choice to seriously pursue my interest in photography.
I guess I'll close so as not to keep rambling on.

Thanks again to EVERYONE who made this possible and to EVERYONE who participated. Everyone on this site that I have had any interaction with has been wonderful and I thank you ALL. W - O - W, God Bless Y'all! :patriot:


Congratulations!!

Everyone's photos are fabulous...so I can see how hard it was to choose winners.

CONGRATS to everyone. :cheers:

You think they would post the winning images so we could all see and admire them. It's kind of hard for anyone to get excited, except the named winners, without seeing the images. Congratulations to the winners but it would be nice to know what we are congratulating them for.
