I made the cut! Entry # 91! http://long-island.newsday.com/photos/exploreli-photo-contest-top-100-entries-1.3373575#91 Too bad I dont find out if I made top 4 till May. But regardless, I'm excited I will at least be in the Explore LI magazine somewhere, even if I'm not a prize winner.
You need an optimum online account. They used to have it open to everyone, now they want you as an optimum suscriber to see it. Love how newsrag I mean newsday owns cablevision who owns optimum. Anyway, finally saw your picture Kathryn and very nice!!!! Photographically, yours was the best and there were a few others that were really nice too and I'd like to see in the magazine. Good luck with it! I hope you make it to the finals!
Thanks all! I'm very excited that I will be for real published, in print! Although winning one of the top 4 prize packages would be fantastic Chris I think they had to choose photos from all sorts of skill levels to make it fair for all who entered. For example, that one entry with the kids and the horse! LMAO, not the best pic technically, and I HATE that it had a date stamp.... but it was hilarious. Not cover worthy but it should be in the magazine. Here is a screenie of the page for the non optimum subscribers:
I hear ya... I get a certain sense of gratuity when one of my images get published. Even more so when you get a prize ! Good luck on the prize winning.
