Unexpected Acknowledgement

Wow. Oh wow. Oh wow.

Wait, did I just accidently quote Steve Jobs? ย (May he rest in peace)

Last night I won a Mobbie (!!!) for Best Photography Blog. To say I’m floored would be an understatement. I was very happy to be even nominated (at the onset no less) for the Best Photography Blog category, but I didn’t expect to win once I saw some of the competition out there. The promotion I was doing for my blog to win the contest was also dialed down a little once I saw some of the other fantastic blogs in myย category- there were some great ones! So, I was a bit surprised when I heard my name called as the winner that night.

I could not have done this without all of you. For all of my readers, fans, friends, and family who voted for me: THANK YOU. I truly appreciate the votes and love the fact you like my work. (Don’t worry, I have a ton of cool stuff planned for 2012- I’m not slacking off) Yes, I do appreciate the irony that I won a contest for my photo blog the same day I sent my main camera in for servicing.

When I started this blog over a year ago to document an epic road trip to Texas and back, I never dreamed I would have ended up here. I’m grateful for the journey so far and very fortunate to have supportive friends and family that let me follow my passion. To all my readers/viewers, I can’t wait to show you some of my ideas I have in store and I sincerely hope you love them.
