My wife and I took home 4 ribbons last night's photo competition.

There were about about 75 B&W, 100 color print and digital photos
submitted for the 3 different categories. You are allowed to submit up
to 2 photos for B&W and Color and one photo for the Digital Submission.
I was blown away that we took home one Honorable Mention, one 4th
place, one 3rd place and a 2nd Place.

I touched this up some after the comments made in rec.boats. I do
appreciate your help.

4th Place I almost didn't submit this one, I thought there would be a
ton of similar photos.

A photo, I really liked, but it did not ribbon. The pro thought it
would be a much better photo if the girl was interacting with the
penguin. I thought her shy look made the photo.

An ordinary flower and bee photo that my wife said I should submit. No
ribbon.
