I found out this morning that two photos I entered in our local paper's photo contest won their categories, and one even won the Grand Prize! This soccer picture is the one that won the grand prize as well as the Kids Sports category, and the wedding picture won the Weddings and Anniversaries category. All together, I won $400. Not a whole lot by some standards, but it's a lot to me!  | | | | | Sponsored Links | Premium Members do not see Google advertisements. SIGN UP today and help support our community.
