TAKING A LOOK AT ITALY

“If you see something that moves you, and then snap it, you keep a moment.” – Linda McCartney

A few months back, I entered a photo contest sponsored by Italy Magazine, never thinking that I would even receive an answer from them. Lo and behold, Friday morning I received an email telling me that they had decided to include twelve of my images in the competition. The magazine has published selected photographs from entrants in four different categories and then asked readers to vote on the image that they think is best from each category .

I have decided to send out an appeal to all of my friends and loyal followers. Take a look at my photos below and if you like one (or all) of them, please cast your vote (just click the link below the photograph and then click the little heart).

You can also view all of the competitors by clicking the link below this paragraph. There are quite a few very nice images in each category. You can view all of the entries by clicking here.

I entered photos in three categories:
