Susan and I are honored to have been chosen to be two of six judges for the first Ries Photo Contest sponsored by Ries Tripods. The sponsors hope to make this an annual event and that all depends on you entering your photographs. The theme of this contest is “HANDS” and is open to artistic interpretation.
Here is a quote from the contest web site;
We created this contest in the interest of promoting the art of photography. Please, be creative, have fun, and continue to pursue the passion. We also wanted this to count for something, so we are helping Operation Photo Rescue in conjunction with the 2nd place photo. Please visit their website & see if you can help. www.operationphotorescue.org
