Why are my blog titles getting so long? Sorry about that\u2026 I guess with one post per day, sometimes there is a lot to squeeze in!<\/p>\n

So, a few days ago I received a letter from the Smithsonian saying that I have another one in the running for the 6th Annual Photo Contest! Cool! Two years ago, I had 2 winners in the 4th Annual Photo Contest<\/a> , and one of those ended up hanging in the Smithsonian castle in DC. I know a few of you out there got to see it on road trips \u2013 maybe we can make another pilgrimage this year!. I didn\u2019t win anything last year in the 5th annual contest\u2026 It was a bad year for me, what can I say?<\/p>\n

The one that is in the finalist pool this year is the Times Square one that I have placed above. Just below that, I have placed a NEW photo of Rockefeller Center that I have been working on over the weekend. I hope you like it.<\/p>\n

I will be speaking in Austin, Texas next week at the Digital Photography SIG<\/a> on Thursday night, Feb 26 (next week). It\u2019s free to come \u2013 please do \u2013 I\u2019d be happy to meet you in person! I\u2019ll be talking about photography and going through a tutorial. If you are in Central Texas, be sure to stop by \u2014 it should be a good time!<\/p>\n

Also, over the weekend, I was interviewed at the Pro Photography Show<\/a>, which is a podcast that should be made available in the next few weeks. I will be sure to put a link to it here whenever it goes live.<\/p>\n
