a couple of months ago i mentioned that at the end of last year i entered into a couple of online photo competitions. from the first competition my beach soccer shot was included in a list of 18 highly commended images. the other competition was the sony world photography awards, and again whilst i didn't win, i did get a commendation. i'm prouder of this as the competition seems more prestigious and the numbers are more flattering. there were over 50,000 entries in the open (non-professional) competition, and my los torres shot was included in the top 50 (or from my count 34) in the travel category. in addition the other shots are all very impressive, so it feels good to be in such attractive company. i received an email today asking for a higher resolution version, as it's also going to be included in the 2011 Sony World Photography Awards Winner's Book. again i'd have preferred the $5000 grand prize, but i'm happy enough with a page in a book.
