Have a Photograph That I Have Taken Displayed Publicly

Come one, come all to the Twin Falls County Fair and Magic Valley Stampede.  And while you're there, do me a favor, okay?  Stop by the photography building and see if you can pick out the pictures I entered, thus completing my goal of having a photograph I've taken displayed for all the world (okay, or at least the Magic Valley) to see.   Hint...my name will be on them. 

Each year as I enter the photography building I am filled with a sense of awe at the incredible talent in our valley.  But I am also filled with a sense of disappointment that I forgot, once again, to enter my own photographs.  But this year I was bound and determined to make an entry.  So determined, in fact, that I entered SEVEN pictures. 

Yes, that's right.  Seven.  (Hey, the limit is eight...)

I suppose that somehow makes up for the fact that I haven't entered every single year I've wanted to.

Judging happens behind closed doors tomorrow.  My entries are in the following SEVEN categories:  Portrait - Female, Portrait - Child, Abstract, Rural Scenes, Skies, Wedding - Casual, and Miscellaneous.  It would be thrilling to win - I can't deny that.  But even if I don't, I feel a sense of accomplishment.  I've put my own unique view of the world on display and I am so proud of myself for doing it!
