Amazing news!



I really enjoyed visiting the latest Tate Modern photography exhibition Great photos and a really interesting theme, well organised and interestingly arranged. Street photography (of people) isn't something I'm particularly good at or explore so it was lovely to get some stimulation and inspiration.

When I got home I looked at the exhibition's microsite and noticed they were running a competition in conjunction with Flickr. I had a few photos that fitted the criteria so entered the best one.

Didn't think too much about it after that. Fast forward a month or so and I noticed my flickr site was getting a lot of hits. Odd, thought I. Why is this happening? Eventually the penny dropped and I had a look back at the Tate's site which is where the screen shot above was taken.

Wow! I'm very pleased and very, very flattered to be included in the 100 photos the judges selected. Apparently these are now going to be collated into a book and will be shown within the gallery as a slideshow. How cool is that!
