Photo contest win

I forgot to mention that last month I won the Tack Sharp podcast’s weekly photo contest for Episode 4!

The rules for the contest were pretty simple: each entrant could enter a single photo, which had to be taken with a 50mm lens of some sort. I entered Your eyes, they turn me, mainly because I was really proud of the photo and wanted more people to see it. Between when I entered and today, the number of Flickr views the photo has had has increased by about 900%, so I definitely got what I wanted out of it. As an added bonus, the two hosts of the podcast praised my work on the air in Episode 6, saying that my photos were “amazing,” which was really rewarding.

Anyway, I just thought I’d mention that here. If you haven’t heard the Tack Sharp podcast, give it a listen. It’s pretty interesting and the hosts keep it fun.
