My Five-Minute Bragging Rights…..
I mentioned couple posts back that I had just entered five framed/matted photos in the Kent Island Federation Of Arts 19th Annual Photography Show presently displayed in Stevensville, Maryland. Award-winning photographer, Jay Fleming, was the judge.
<doing my two-step boogie>
I won three awards in Amateur!
So how about that?!! 😉 I know I am thrilled!!! 🙂
I entered three photos in last year’s show but never got the chance to post with Mom being ill then. I won one award last year, so I’ll share it now as well….. 🙂
Thank you for stopping by and let me brag a little, have a great day! (see below)
~~~~~~UPDATE~~~~~~
Our Kent Island Photo Club decided to get involved with our recent Queen Anne’s County Fair photography contest for fun. Oops, I did it again! lol 🙂
And finally, sharing my best win for last!
