i don't normally like to toot my own horn as a rule, but this is one time i'll give it a good honk! my photo, Refraction,
(https://photography-on-the.net …38493&highlight​=squirl033)
just won Photo of the Year on (gasp!) another forum. now, that may not seem like a big deal, but considering the field of 135 contenders, and some VERY talented photographers, i'm pretty darn excited! of course, the $3,660 worth of cash and prizes that went with that award would be enough to get anyone's attention! ;) between getting published in National Geographic and now this, that photo, which i took just for a lark, to see if i could even get the pic at all, has done pretty well!!

I remember that pic! :D

It really is a great shot. Forget tooting your own horn, get your butt up on the tallest building where you live and YELL!

Congratulations!
