Sadly, I didn’t place in the Magnolia Garden Photo Contest again. Wah wah. BUT I got some really great pics that I will personally enjoy. Below are the ones I felt were the favorites for actually entering into the contest and I have a ton more that I just really like.

I am really into that peacock. I started shooting super early one weekend morning and I found it just hanging out, strolling along. And that same morning I took that glowy shot of the oak branches with the blooming flowers. Those were the two I entered in the actual contest. But it looks like this year and the last the judge(s) are looking for flying white crane shots. Maybe next year I’ll try to focus on bird watching a bit more? Congrats to the winners, view here.
