NH Pro Photography competition

I was fortunate to have had the opportunity to be able to attend the NH Professional Photographers Asso convention in North Conway. There were a number of key speakers from all over the country providing their professional insight. After several agonizing days of photography selection and choosing names I was ready to enter the Print Competition. I choose five 16"x20" photographs to enter and hoped for at least a score of 70. LustreColor prepared the print competition pieces. I was indeed blessed to have 6 judges check 12 areas of the work award 2 red & 3 blue ribbons!! Check them out and add a comment to let me know what you think.

TIP: If you want to develope your craft without spending big bucks on a college degree, join a local photography or art association.

Boston Flower Show

My wife and I attended the Boston Flower Show a while ago. It had been something that we wanted to do for some time. I wish I could say it was great but... The entry fee was $20 each & parking for $12. We should have went out to dinner instead. We weren't the only ones dissappointed with this event. In talking with one of the vendors it seems that it has been losing steam for several years now. I hope to publish some photos soon.
