Cuyahoga Valley Photo Society Awards

The Cuyahoga Valley National Park holds an annual contest in the fall to celebrate the talented photographers that visit the park.

Last evening the annual awards ceremony was held and I was fortunate enough to get the Tim Thomas award for Best in Show with the above image.  It is a humbling experience to be recognized from all the wonderful images in the competition.

Two other images received awards recognition.  

All of the images are on display in November at the Main Library in Akron.   Here is a link:

Hope you can enjoy the exhibit thru December 7th.

Award Winning Photographs

Sorry for the long delay in getting you an updated web blog.   Been shooting a lot and have some nice recognition to tell you about:

What do these three images have in common?   They have all been selected over the last month as 'Editors Picks' on the NatureScapes.Net web site:

NatureScapes is my favorite web site dedicated to nature photography.   The world wide collection of photographers has professionals as well as amateurs like myself.   It is always a treat to get recognized by this prestigious web site.    Here is a link to the web site if you want to see some really beautiful nature photography:
