Today was the Artists' Reception for the photo contest I entered my fish picture in. We went down to see the show and several good friends also came along, including Allan (promoguy) and his wife, Angie! It's very exciting to see my work hanging in, not only a gallery, but the San Diego Natural History Museum!!
Here are some pictures from today:

Thanks everyone! No linne, I didn't win any prizes, but the photos that DID win really, really deserved it! There's still a "People's Choice" award to be given at the end of the show in Sept, so there's still a chance
To be honest, I'm just so pleased & proud to be included in the show that it's ok if I don't win a prize!
