BOTH photos were selected for display!!! Woohoo!
To share something I wrote in my journal yesterday….
There is $$ at stake and while that would be cool (yeah, I could go for the $$) I really just want the recognition. I want someone who isn’t a friend or family member to say “Your photos are good!
And that’s EXACTLY what happened! The judges hand selected ‘x’ number of pieces for display. They called the winners and those that should come pick up their photos, and the rest they didn’t call at all — but that’s not what they’d told me they would do. So when I didn’t get a call yesterday, I assumed it was because I didn’t win AND wasn’t selected. It was really because I didn’t win $$, but I got EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED! Recognition!
The photos will be on display through Sunday, October 23rd!
Now for my acceptance speech: LOL
Thanks to TS for the encouragement, support, input, etc! You guys are the most awesome bunch of people around! Thank you Tanya (craftymom) for letting me have some fun at your kids expense! 😉 Thanks to the four girls who are “the feet”. And, finally, my family for giving me the time to dive into this venture and make them be my models!
