I'm Stunned - Metro Photo Challenge

Journal Entry: Wed Nov 4, 2009, 11:33 AM
In the finals


The metro newspaper distributes editions in 23 countries on 4 continents across the world. Last month from the local Boston edition, I learned they were holding a photography contest. I submitted a few photos and forgot about it. This morning I found out that one of my photos is a finalist, and is in the top ten in the "places" category in the United States (out of nearly 5,000 photographs). I was shocked, I had completely forgotten about this contest, and the prizes are amazing. First place in each local category gets a Canon DSLR, and the global winners get a trip for two to anywhere the metro is distributed (23 countries). I'm still stunned about this!

Online voting is taking place right now until the end of the month, so if you would take a minute to sign up and vote for your favorite I would really appreciate it!

My entry in this contest is -

In order to vote, you need to sign up here - [link] - (it takes less than a minute I promise) - and then you can vote here - [link] - My entry is in the first category and is the photo above, by the username "ryanschain"

Thank you so much guys! Please just vote for your favorite, and if that happens to be mine than awesome haha, but please don't feel pressured!

Hi Ryan, do you have any wrens like this one [link] This is the female and the male has a lot of blue markings during the breeding season.
