I wasn't sure where to share this and I very rarely browse any of the other forums so I thought maybe it would be best shared with my friends here at the challenges.
Getting a Kodak POTD is a challenge in itself but to get one today of all days?! :clap

I entered this shot last year!!!

http://www.kodak.com/eknec/PageQuerier.jhtml?pq-path=2549&pq-locale=en_US&_requestid=11614

The email I got from the editor was so lovely. She said, "I loved your photograph so much, I kept it in the queue for a whole year so I could use it this year."

I haven't been able to get a screen shot of the webcam ALL day! :cry
Oh well, the glory feels great :thumb

Merry Christmas EVERYONE! :D

    Nice shot, but I keep getting sent to a photograph that states it was taken by a Scott Kehan.....Mrs. Cue your name is not Scott? Right??

    Peace and Hope you had a wonderful holiday.

    No I think her name is Allison which you can find from the previous page that is here....
    http://www.kodak.com/eknec/PageQuerier.jhtml?pq-path=10419&pq-locale=en_US&_requestid=5757

    I think the link that she originally posted was a default for the pic of the day and it changes every day.

    Congrates for the reconition for the pic Allison! Lovely picture!

    I just saw this today - and learned your name, Alison - but I somehow found the correct photo. It is absolutely beautiful; perfect for the season and posted to POTD on the day it deserves. Absolutely fabulous! Congratulations! clap.gifclap.gif
