Two New Websites Launched!

I'd like to share a couple of new websites with you that I created over the past couple of months!

The first one is for the Sparta Chamber of Commerce. DDA Director Elizabeth Gorski said she is quite pleased and very excited about the major upgrade to the overall look, feel and operation of the site.






The other site was created for Traverse City nature photographer Tom Haxby. His beautiful images are able to be viewed in new galleries, and are available for purchase via PayPal.

An Update...

Here's an update on the BetterPhoto.com entry I mentioned yesterday - I took Second Place! This is quite an honor, as there are thousands of entries and I never made it even to to the final round before.

To see the finalists, please visit HERE. I am in the "Details and Macro" category.

I find it just wonderful that one of my favorite Michigan photographers, Dean Pennala took First Place in the very same category. I'm flattered to even be featured alongside such amazing talent.

It's All in the Details...

This evening I received the following email:

Congratulations! You have placed as a finalist in this month's BetterPhoto Contest!

Over 23900 photos were entered into the competition; it is an honor to have your image selected among the top finalist photos. During the next few days, the judges select the top winning photos. If your image is selected as a winner, you will be emailed again.

To see the photo enlarged, visit BetterPhoto.com. The image is a very detailed macro of a spider on a dew-covered web I took in the early morning back in September.

The competition at this web site is extremely challenging - there are hundreds of amazing photographers. It's an honor to have even been selected, and although I've been participating here for about a year, it's the first time I had an image make it to the finals for judging.
