Hello Everyone,
The contest started with me filling out an application and thinking, "sounds like fun"!
This was a speck of a thought, until I received the email the next day telling me I had 3 days to interpret a list of terms and phrases. Turning symbolic vernacular into images was quite the challenge! However, I jumped in and submerged myself into playing with light and subject matter.
Standing on a corner until three in the morning to get the best shot of construction lighting. Waiting two hours for the proper lighting to capture refraction from the water droplets on our banana plant. Exhilarated by the break in the clouds, which allowed me to witness water droplets on the moon roof of a car. Then arriving home totally exhausted to be welcomed by my family. I could not ask for anything more fulfilling.
The show of individual work was displayed a few days later and I was ecstatic to see each individuals interpretation of the project.
I was honored when advised that my work received "Best in Show".
Recognition for my perception of an image is quite humbling. Thank you everyone for you support!
