This year I submitted 50 images into the Shoot and Share contest they hold every year. I am so pleased with the results! Out of those 50 I submitted, 15 were chosen among the top 30%, 20%, 10%  in their categories. This year is the first year I placed as a finalist! There were 583,150 photos submitted by 16,449 photographers so you know the competition was fierce.
