Congrats and thanks to my DU photo-pickers!

[DemoTex]

My two image entries were accepted for the Showcase "Shots-11" gallery show in Atlanta (only two entries were allowed). "Storm" and "Forest" won out on DU and other sites. They are also entered, with about 15 other images, in the Nature Conservancy photo contest.

Love 'ya DU!

Congratulations!

These are such exquisite pictures...you did extremely well with them...

I wish you luck in the Nature Conservancy contest. I get their magazine...maybe I'll see your pics there!

7. Well, I'm very disappointed that my shots of "Raccoon in neighbor's garbage"

And "Some Sort of Putty-Like-Substance on My Sidewalk" didn't beat out the guy with a fricken WATCH TOWER, but I'm sure it was all talent.

;)

Nice captures. You may not know, but many, many people will relish these for decades to come. Perhaps longer.

Now, I just noticed my daughter's cat checking out the incoming storm. If we're lucky, we'll get a "LOLighting Catz" shot in a minute.
