I just happened to visit the Suwanee website and up popped my winning photo in the 2012 Snap Suwanee Competition. Smile!


"Snap Suwanee
Thirteen winning photographs in the 2012 Snap Suwanee photo competition are on display* at Suwanee City Hall through the remainder of this year. The winning photos represent a variety of Suwanee locales, including a variety of parks and the historic district.

"It's always fun to see what places and events draw photographers' focus each year," says Public Information Officer Lynne Bohlman DeWilde. "This year, we received a lot of Snowmageddon photos [from January 2011] as well as several photographs from the 9-11 ceremony and unveiling of the World Trade Center artifact.

In all, the City received 129 entries from 43 photographers in the annual photo competition. The photos are on exhibit along the lower-level back foyer at City Hall, located at 330 Town Center Avenue.

*Please note that the City Hall exhibit opened March 1, but will be temporarily taken down the week of March 5 in order to address an issue related to framing. The exhibit will reopen by March 12."

I have not had a chance to see the exhibit myself, but if you are in the area I invite you to go take a look.

My Photo is a Winner!

Very exciting news just came in: A photo that I submitted to the City of Suwanee's 2012 Snap Suwanee photo competition has been selected as one of only 13 winning photographs. The winning photo is of a boy (actually my son Alex) in the fountain, "Splish Splash Fountain Fun." This year they received 129 entries from 43 photographers.

The 2012 exhibit will be installed at City Hall by March 1. In addition to this exhibit, my photo MAY be included in a gallery of winning photos on the City's Facebook page and website as well as in stories printed by the Gwinnett Daily Post and other media. The City also may use Snap Suwanee photos in its publications and advertisements.

I am extremely happy and thank the City of Suwanee for this wonderful opportunity!
