I just got notification about a Smithsonian Magazine contest I forgot I entered with regard to this image:
“On behalf of Smithsonian magazine, I am pleased to inform you that you are one of the top ten finalists in the “Americana” category of our 7th annual photo contest. Your photograph of “Flock of birds taking off as… the sun sets” was among more than 60,000 entries we received from all over the world.”
Haven’t won anything yet, but it’s nice to have made finalist out of so many entries. Woot! :-)
There’s also an audience favorite category, so if you like this image… I would appreciate your vote! :-) You can vote once every 24hrs through March 2010
