I Made the Wall

[asnow]

I entered a picture in the Capture Oakville Contest. I'm not one of the winners but I'm still pretty happy. There were almost 400 total entries in 6 categories. They chose about 80 pictures to go on display on the walls in the Oakville Town Hall for 8 weeks. I made the wall with my "The Letter Graveyard" in the Fine Arts category.

That still means you did a great job! Really like how the shadows give the letters a crisp outline.

Congratulations. It is an excellent photograph. Is there a website with the other winners posted, so we can see what you gave up your copyrights for?

Thanks Realist and Mike

I knew there would be confusion with my posts. There are two competitions. This one (Capture Oakville) is a serious one open to the publc and has rules that make sense (photographers keep the ownership and copyright to their images). The problem one is at work where the contest is for employees only and to make money for the united way. That one we had to give up our ownership rights and my two entries in that were not nearly this good.

Here is a link to Capture Oakville. It doesn't have this years winners yet, but you can see pictures from previous years winners.

And rightly so; this is a very nice image, sharp, well composed, and with wonderful textures ... i like it.

Yes an interesting image. I like the tones of grey.
