Capture My Chicago

So it's been a long time since I've posted. Guess I'm not the blogging type. Oh well.

Currently entering some of my photos in the Capture My Chicago contest. This is the second year they are running it. The local CBS station sponsors it and the object is to get local photographers to submit photos for possible inclusion in a photography book. Folks vote on the images, and the editors make selections based on their preferences, and the voting.

Last year I had about 5 small thumbnail sized photos in collages at the start of various chapters in the book, along with a 1/4 sized photo on one page. Not too bad for entering late last year.

This year I entered at the start and hope to do better. Check out my stats to the left. If you have a chance a vote and/or comments would be appreciated.
