Default I won! I won! I won!
Just got the call from our local Nature Center. My stream picture (below) won 1st Place, making my wallet $250 heavier! I have to wait until Dec 12 to receive my winnings, since I agreed to let them do a little presentation at their Art Fair then. Funny thing is, I wasn't happy with many of my pictures from my crack of dawn photo shoot, so I debated going back to do an evening shoot. Thankfully I went back, as that is the one that won. Needless to say I am jazzed!

Thanks to MPIX for their Metallic Prints!
