I should enter more photography competitions. I think 20% of the reason I don’t is the expense (most good comps aren’t free to enter) but the other 80% is a distinct lack of self confidence. My approach to competitions is a bit like this: Me: I should enter that competition Other me: You don’t have anything good enough to enter with Me: These photos are good Other me: The kid next door could take a better photo than this And so it goes…until I finally narrow down a short list a few days before the comp closes. This year I entered the International Color Awards with 2 pictures, because that’s all I could decide on. I found out yesterday that one of those pictures won a nomination place, which essentially means that of the 5,678 entries from 78 countries received, it was placed in the top 10% of entries. So naturally, I ummed and ahhhed about telling anyone that.  Professional Architecture category nominee - Not The Cheap Seats

The weather was hot at the beginning of the month. I went up to Mount Macedon to photograph the memorial cross at daybreak of 9 March, because it was 29°C all during the night, I was over it and needed distracting. It was the hottest March night on record. Altitude is supposed to be cooler, right?  Maybe .002 less degrees than in Melbourne |
