Judged by a couple of professional artists. I came in third place with this shot (which I didn't think was the best of the ones I submitted, but I do still love it):

He's holding the bat upside down!

Nice pic, though. What else did you submit?

To Sue U. He's holding the bat sideways. The label should be on top.

Great photo. Wouldn't it be fun if you could take pictures in the court room?

It's a great picture, a real slice of Americana...

I imagine when most folks look at that, it brings back fond memories...(it did for me)

Its one of my favorites. I was surprised that one didn't get any notice from the judges. I think it is a much better and more artistic photo than the one they recognized -- and far better than the photo ahead of me (also boats). But then, it just goes to show again that art is entirely subjective.

U-10 Little League, summer ball. Much fun! The kid is rather good, if I do say so myself.

Thanks for letting us see these; I think the boats are my favorite. Oh, and CONGRATS!
