I know a lot of you have seen these two photos before, but I’m happy to announce that they were both just selected as “Highly Honored” in the Nature’s Best photo competition. This is the show I consider to be the second best behind the BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition. Each photo will appear in the Fall/Winter 2010 awards annual edition of the magazine, so it should be out soon. In addition, they could end up in the Smithsonian Gallery exhibit (eventually, they’ll choose a selection from the highly honored winners to hang in the museum). The first photo is of a leaf-tailed gecko from Madagascar. It was entered in the “Small Wonders” category. The second is of horseshoe crabs spawning at Cape May, New Jersey and it was entered in the “Oceans” category.
Congrats big brother! You have a huge following here in Washington, DC (possibly thanks to me) that will be very pleased to visit the Smithsonian to see these shots displayed there. The horseshoe crab one is still the screen saver for a of my few co-workers.
Thank God I did not let work distract me from my visit to the blog this morning! Otherwise I would not have known I have yet another thing to brag about my brood! Way to go, Sean.
