Remember, awhile back, I had asked you all to go vote for my friend Ali's photo which was in a contest for PCPhoto Magazine? Well, she didn't win the popular vote. :-(

BUT...she DID win something...

Only the GRAND PRIZE!!!! She announced it on her blog, and I meant to mention it here, but got caught up in the weeds doing other stuff (you know...unpacking, settling in, etc). Well, yesterday, she was interviewed for the 4:00 p.m. news show that WIBW does. It was a great interview, and it features many of Ali's landscape photos. So...please, go watch the interview. Ali was a mentor to me while I was in KS (and I'm missing that mentoring BIG TIME right now), but more importantly, she was a very good friend to me. She gave me the opportunity to sample her studio and learn about using a studio. She was someone who sat with me in church when I was alone. She had sweet kids and lovely pets. And I'm truly excited that she was picked...she deserves this!

She really does some exceptional work. I like her people portraits the best, though.
