<gratuitous horn blowing>

I just got a silver award for my entry into the Loupe Awards. My average score was 82, with one of the judges awarding my image a 94!

I don't make images to enter awards, but, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't feeling a bit proud at the moment.

Very nice. And you're right about Milford sound. Best thing about the place is it hasn't been turned into some hyper touristy place like queenstown or something. Too remote for that. Tho I see they are trying to get a more direct road cut through the hills. Big opposition tho. Yup ,that photo says volumes.

Great stuff H!

My sister-in-law picked up a silver in the Landscape Open Awards last year.
You might have enjoyed chatting to her up at Palm Cove.

Well done again! A really fabulous picture.

Well done, H. Unquestionably well deserved. Exquisite image, beautifully realized.

But if this came second, what could possibly have come first??????
