Krappy Kamera Krap!
This is the second year I entered Soho Gallery's Krappy Kamera competition and the second year I did not get chosen. I'm going to try not to get discouraged as I am positive there were tons of wonderful entries that did not get picked. I really thought I had a chance this year since I did not have to send in slides but actual prints instead. I was a little surprised that I got my entry back so fast, a week later! I wondered if they gave it a real good look or if they already picked the winners since I put my entry in on the very last day. I hope that was not the case cuz that would suck! Anyhow, here are the photos I entered. Do you think they suck?
These are panoramas made by my holga.

I can't wait to see the show and see what has gotten chosen. Last year there really were some wonderful shots but there were also some shots that made me wonder what the judges were thinking!

Just so you know, we received over 1200 images. The judging was done in one day but we spent about 10 hours organizing and preparing for the judge. You received your notice because we had a great team of volunteers who packed and mailed all of the submissions within 24 hours of the judging. You're right about the prints. There were so many beautiful images, John Reuter (our judge) had difficulty deciding. Your images are, in fact, wonderful and you should not be discouraged. There were many images he would have liked to include but we ran out of wall space.
Good luck in the future,
Sandra
