Default won the prize!

Just have to share my good news -- found out yesterday that the image I submitted to a local contest won Best in Show and I'm going to be getting $400! First time I entered something in a contest, first time I made some money from my work. Makes me very very happy! I guess I am learning something here!

Here's the image. I printed it in a 16 x 20 -- my first time printing something in a large size! -- and it really added to the impact to have it that size.

street friends resized

Thanks for looking!
