200 Yards

If you take a look along the right hand side of this blog, you'll notice a new badge with the 200 Yards logo on it. As I mentioned in a post last month, I submitted some shots for the most recent competition, and I was lucky enough to get one picked for the show. In fact, it was the photo that I posted in June. The show runs from the end of this month through August, with a reception on Thursday, August 4th. There are 18 other photographers represented, including the fabulous Julie Michelle and our GWSF friend Glenn Bachmann. Would love to see any and all of you local folk who can make it show up then!

Choo-Choo

This is one of five photos I submitted this morning to a project called 200 Yards. The proprietors of a site known as Lightbox SF have set this up, picking a spot for a show and then drawing a circle with a 200 yard radius around the spot. Photographers are then asked to take pictures within that radius and submit them for possible inclusion in the show. I'd read about the one they did in the Lower Haight a few months back, but this is the first one I've submitted work to (it's the fifth such show over all). Submissions close June 30th, and the show will be some time in August. Wish me luck!
