Congratulations, CG!
What a beautiful composition!
You really captured that famous St. John blue...my favorite color
Sign me up for a copy!

Thanks everyone! I'm really excited about this!
Beachplums - I'd be happy to give you a copy of it! Do you want it electronically so you can have your own print made, or were you looking for a print?

Margo,
Hate to break it to the hubby but yours is much better. It has a mesmerizing quality. I would buy it.

Congratulations! I would buy your calendar.
When will you know if your photo placed?
It's like looking in your soup and finding a whole different alphabet.

His is pretty but I find my eye wanting to crop it.
Yours is very special, absolutely mesmerizing, as the previous poster said.

The letter says they won't award any prizes until they get the actual prints, which have to be properly framed.
Now I'm waiting for the instructions that specify what size the print needs to be and any framing guidelines. Once it's framed, then there will be a certain time/day that I will have to deliver it to the museum.
I almost didn't enter because I thought my STJ trip would be in the middle of everything, but I think it's going to work out rather nicely!

Wow, what a great honor! Fantastic photo CG!
Now we have something in common.....your photo is hanging in a museum, and the way I feel today, I should be hanging in one too.....
Congratulations! Keep clickin that shutter button!

Congratulations! Both photos are fabulous... yours definitely has museum quality, your husband's is one of those pics that you automatically want to jump into - even if you had no idea where it is!
