My Train Photograph Entry Won First Place in A Photography Contest

colorado_central_rr_train_-_71.jpg  I entered this train photograph in a photography contest on the About.com Photography forum and I was very surprised to find out today, October 31, 2007, that I won the contest. 

As a photographer I enjoy entering photography contests.  I enjoy competing with some very talented photographer’s.  There is no money in the contests that I enter only recognition.  Beating everyone else that I compete with is a great reward for me.  I have entered about 20 to 30 contests, and so far I have had two photographs that won first place and one of my entries won third place.

Here is the link for anyone that would like to read more about my winning photograph or see the other finalists entries.  http://photography.about.com//od/takingpictures/ig/Weekly-Assignment-8-Finalists/jim-juris-winner-vehicles.htm
