In 45th Place ...

I've shared this wonderful news with many, but I thought I'd make it "blog official" now. I was honored to have this photograph chosen as one of the Top 50 Fan Photos of the Year.

This award was bestowed by my mentor Nick Kelsh from our community, How To Photograph Your Life. Nick's taught me oodles about digital photography both online and in person when I took his seminar in Philadelphia two years ago.

All 50 of the photos in this grouping are terrific and I highly recommend taking time to look through them. Click on the link above my photo. A person can learn a lot about photography simply by looking at these photos and reading Nick's commentary. If you get inspired, I can highly recommend becoming part of our community and/or taking some online classes from Nick, a world-class photographer. You can learn more about him on his website.
