    I am Photographer of the Year!

    Last night was my Camera Club Awards Evening for the 2011 competitions. I did quite well, receiving about 15 trophies and shields, and about 30 certificates.
    Trophies included Photographer of the Year! Not bad for someone who has been shooting for only 2 years up against some well established photographers!

    Well Chuffed! Although it was a little embarrassing to keep getting the awards, especially as I am the competition Secretary and did all the calculating for the awards! I did get them independently checked, however, so I can't be accused of cheating!

    Yeah, some third place, some second, some first. Some special awards and stuff. We have about 90 certificates in all, and some 34 trophies/shields.

    I am not that good, really, but I enjoy it.
    One thing I'd like to do more of is studio stuff, but I just don't get the time to practice.
