I won a contest :)
#1

I entered to a contest in Flickr. A photographer in Flickr has opened a new group Catchy Colors, and she made a contest. The theme was Bell peppers, and they would judge creativity and color. The pictures would be judged by some other photgraphers memebers of that site.

I had two ideas, to make a paprika look like a bell and/or make something with lights and bokeh... The bell picture didn't work, but this one worked out nice. I liked the picture and submitted it. I didn't see anything similar and I thought I had no chance to win....Yesterday I had in my picture my lable that I had won the First prize in the Cathegory "Happy Couple".

Here is the link with all submitions, and here is the link with the winners pictures ...

I am very happy!! Smile
