Second Place, Baby!

Okay, I gotta brag......

ONE OF MY PHOTOS JUST WON SECOND PLACE IN A LOCAL PHOTOGRAPHY CONTEST!




This is the winning image.  As you may remember, I captured this waterfall last October at Silver Falls State Park. When I spied the sun shining through the trees above Lower South Falls, I knew it would make an amazing shot.

From over 400 entries, from all over the Portland Metropolitan area, this photo earned second place.  Although it would've been great to be the overall winner, I'm very happy with the outcome.
