Photo Show #1

Received word today that two of my photos were juried in to the "Through the Lens" photography show in September.

There were 173 photos submitted by 45 photographers. Of those 173 submissions 73 were juried into the show. That is 42% acceptance. I had two of four accepted which is 50%, so I am very happy.

The two accepted were the sunflowers (Selling Sunshine) and the deer (Cades Cove Deer).

Judging will be Sepetember 22 with winners announced on September 23, I will not be here for the show and I guess will not know if I won anything until I return the following Monday.

Another Photography Show

I have entered some more phtotos in a local photography show. This one, like the previous one is a juried show. We were allowed to submit three pictures. They will announce next week which pictures will be selected for exhibition.

The theme of this show is "Motionality".  The idea is convey motion in a still photography. This is a big departure from my usual landscape/nature/flower photography. Guess we will see how I do.

Below are my three entries. I have my fingers crossed

NIGHT RIDER

WIND SURFER

CAROUSEL RIDE

Local Photography Show

From these six pictures I need to select 4 to submit to a local photography contest. It is a juried contest, so after I pick four and submit them, then someone will review my submissions and decide if they will be accepted for the photography show. If any are selected I then have to fram and mat the ones selected. They will be on dispaly in September locally. There are ribbons, cash and a little prestige for the winners.

The theme is "Visions of the Southern Appalachians"

Let me know what you like.
