It is time to enter the yearly Birds and Blooms photo contest. They have changed the rules a little. You can only enter 1 photo in each of 4 categories. I only have entries that qualify for 3 of the categories. It use to be that you could enter 6 photos. One could enter them all in the same category if they chose to do so. So the categories that I am entering in are: Best of Birds, Best of Butterflies, and Best of Flowers. I put seven pictures of flowers on facebook to see what other people would chose. The big winner is this one.
The bird one I am going to enter is of the eagles in Eagle River, Alaska.
And finally the butterfly picture is one I took in South Dakota at the State Capital in Pierre. I have that one entered in a Dakota photo contest and the people really like it.
I never win, but from the ones I have entered in the contest, I have had two of them published in the magazine at other times. I also sent a picture in of a pheasant I had taken in Brown County, SD. I wrote a story about the picture and about the pheasant and that was published. It is always fun to see your photo in print.
I won't know for almost a year how these pictures have done. Time will tell----perhaps we will see them in the magazine sometime.
