I have a good friend and mentor, Mike Burg, who is a professional photographer living just south of Rapid City. He is my biggest fan of all my images; critics them encouraging me to get better at my new found craft. Recently he sent me some information on a contest being hosted by B&H Photo, one of the largest photo supply companies in the US, if not in the world asking me what images I had to enter. This morning I took that challenge and entered photo's in 6 of the 9 categories. Thanks Mike for all the encouragement!
Information on the contest can be found at http://www.wildernessphotocompetition.com/index.shtml. This contest is kind of a big deal.......People's Choice prize is an expense paid photo safari to Namibia and Judge's Choice grand prize being an expense paid photo safari to Botswana! (Wouldn't it be cool to get to go to Africa again?!?!?!?!?)
This morning I am shamelessly asking for voting support of my images if any of you were so inclined. You do need a user ID (email address) to cast a vote, but also don't think they will bombard you with spam. (User ID is necessary as you are only allowed one vote - if you change your mind on an image, vote for a second one, it will cancel out the first vote.) Images can be accessed by clicking the above link, then clicking on "Peoples Choice" which will show all images that have been entered. From there you can type in my name which will bring up all 6 photo's I entered. Or, I have included direct links to each entered photo below.

So, in my shamelessness asking for voting support, I also say thank you with great gratitude for that support.
