Well I'm just home from setting up the 4H display at the Stratham Fair, my 27 photos took up most of the booth which was good, without them it would be a bit empty!!!!!
It took probably over an hour to get them all labeled with their tags and then we had 2 judges judging them at once before putting them in the display booth, where they will sit with their ribbons for visitors to view at the Stratham Fair this weekend.
Over all I'm really happy, last year I entered less than 10 photos and boy they were not all too great! I think I got something like 21 blues and 6 reds, so that's really good, I'm really happy and proud of myself for my photography.
Depending on the placing of each photo I get a certain premium, so I'll be bringing home some $$$$ this year!
The only thing that sort of annoyed me a wee bit was the comments left by one judge, saying I should center some of my pictures more when they weren't SUPPOSED to be centered, I don't like always having every subject centered perfectly, and she marked me down for that on a few photos. She also commented on the focus, on one of my favorites, the focus was in the back, not the foreground and she didn't like that, but hey, what can ya do?
Here are a few of my pictures, not the best but what I have uploaded
Thanks for letting me share my excitement I'm thrilled with my results, 21 blue ribbons sure makes a person happy!!!!!!
