    Hey guys,

    I just wanted to share my happiness with you guys - I just found out I won the Dun Laoghaire Library competition for the Heritage Week photo comp :D

    It's a small comp/prize but even a little recognition, for such a beginner photographer like myself, is great in my eyes...

    :o

    Hope I don't sound vain! :(

    I'll put up the raw version (unprocessed)... technically not the greatest I suppose but I really liked the way it displayed how Ireland (and Dun Laoghaire was changing...)

    face changed to protect identity of my sister :D

    edit: I won E300 (my lovely sister gets E30 of that ;) )

    Congratulations very well done. Nice shot too.

    Congrats on win!! :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,268 ✭✭✭trooney


    Nice photo. Well done. Just curious though, how are you protecting the face of your sis if the photo was entered into a comp where, I presume, they will have put in a clause allowing them to use it in anyway they see fit. Or am I missing something and this version is actually the one that won?? :confused:

    Nice one!

    Will get the photo be displayed around the town in a couple of places? Or maybe in the library?

    That was lucky that she was wearing the same colours as the banner

    Lol, the picture I entered is has the face properly displayed...just that on the internet you can get strange people looking shifting through these things (better to be safe than sorry!)

    SofaKing: I think it'll be up in a few libraries as part of an exhibition, I saw the last years winners displayed on a few leaflets too...

    edit: thanks everyone for the support! :)
