Thank you to the Judges, and Brian L. and to all the other members of PPOC from whom I learn every day!
Watch for the Press Release!
WOOHOO! I won it!!! Canadian Professional Photographic Artist of the Year 2009. It feels awesome.
I got the email letting me know I was in the running. I scrambled to rearrange my schedule, picked my prettiest party dress, packed up the pooch, and on Tuesday morning headed off for the 7 hour drive to Regina. Arrived in time to have a nerve calming drink with Rod and Brenda, just before the PPOC Awards Banquet ceremonies began.
It started off well with "Out of this World" winning a Judge’s Choice ribbon (880+/- images, and 14+/- judges!) That alone would have been work the trip.
Next, "It’s a Small World After All" and "Out of this World" made it to the Loan Collection (the best 40 images from the Image Salon).
Next (it keeps getting better…) "Out of this World" wins Best Fine Art Print (image)!
And finally, (and I’m certain it was by a narrow margin) I squeaked by 2 other amazing photographers to win the Photographic Artist of the Year!!!!
SEE my WINNING PPOC IMAGE SALON IMAGES…
