    I just earned my 1st PPA Print Competition Merit

    Sorry guys that I'm bragging, but I am just so darn happy.

    I recently entered my very first PPA print competition, with 3 entries, and 1 scored a merit. I figured one out of three on my first attempt was ok! I only entered three, but you can enter up to four. Geeeeezz did I learn a lot, and I'm looking forward to entering more PPA Competitions! My other two scored in the high 70's - which are average, and thats ok with me for my first entry!


    Anyway, I'm on cloud nine tonight!

    Here is 'Colorado Mine' - my first print merit!

    GOOD FOR YOU!

    And honestly, though I am a wildlife guy, I would love to shoot an image like that. I am sure the fine detail is amazing!

    Thanks so much for your kind thoughts and words!

    That photo just happened to be one of those 'in the right place at the right time' moments.

    Thanks again!
