Can I Share something fun that happened?

[NicoleScraps]

So I entered a county wide amateur photography contest last week. The photos were on display all week at the county fair. Yesterday, I was able to go and pick my photos up and see if I won.
I had entered 12 photographs, one in each of the 12 categories.

I won 10 blue ribbons and 2 red ribbons.

Now, don't make fun of me. I know this is not that big of a deal. (I won $3.50 per blue and $3 per red and it was just a local level contest). However, I am excited about it and it made me super happy.

That's an impressive collection of awards. Well done.

Where can we see your pictures that won?

Well, I have them on facebook, but I can add them here...somewhere....where? Let me think about that.
Hold that thought.

For those of us not versed in country fair ribbon rankings: What do red and blue ribbons mean?

Blue is 1st place, red is 2nd

Ah, then well done!

Okay, here they are. Sorry about the weird slide show. I don't have a pro-flickr account and I use my available space for other things.
I put in the captions what category they were in and what prize.

That's good. I can connect with your feelings. I too won an consolation prize a few days back & I'm over the moon. I feel we all start with small things. Next time I plan to come in top three if not in the first place. Keep up the good work.
