Photo Contest Blue Ribbon Award

Yesterday was the WBCCI Photo Contest with several hundred digital photos entered in
three categories: Human Interest, Airstream Memories, and Scenic/Inanimate Objects. We feel fortunate to have won three ribbons. We took first place in Human Interest division with our old, craggy faced Tombstone gunslinger. That photo was a hand-held shot at 35 feet using a Canon Rebel Eos mount with a Sigma
18-200mm telephoto lens. We also were awarded honorable mention in the same category with a photo of our granddaughter and her dad. We think their priceless expressions wooed the judges. That shot was taken when Courtney, Josh, and Althea met us in Big Bend National Park. The setting is the interior of our Airstream. Our other honorable mention was for the colorful umbrellas on a dune at White Sands National Monument. Note the lost sandal.
