Last year about this time, I created the Body of Work Award to recognize the DPC Masters, folks who had submitted to 200 challenges or more. Below's the link to the original thread and a quote from the original post.

Another year down, and I'd like to extend the award to those who have crossed the 200 challenge marker during 2011. If that's you, feel free to add the award to your profile page and send me a PM and I'll recognize the 2011 inductees here and in the comments section of the award itself.

2011 Inductees:

tanguera

bvy

franktheyank

tnun

2012 Inductees:

There have been many threads along the lines of ... "Where have the masters gone?"

I submit they are still here.

Who is a master ... someone with persistence, someone who participates over the long term, someone who studies and purposively attempts to improve, someone who helps others when asked and other times independently. Often the masters are silent masters - folks who you'll never see in rants or in forum threads. Sometimes they are edgy and gruff; they fail to suffer fools gracefully. But above all, masters are folks who "show up," who "stick around." They are "here to play." And they exhibit a love of DPC, a love of this community.

To these masters I dedicate my once and only "Body of Work" Award. I want to recognize the DPC folks who have submitted to 200 or more challenges. I may have missed a few ... and if I've missed YOU, please tell and I'll add you below.

So here is my award to the Masters, for the body of work they have contributed here. To those I recognize, place this badge in your profile with honor and accept my personal thanks. I have learned tremendously from you!

Everyone else, please ... look at their photos - they are collectively and individually wonderful. Please thank them for their contribution to this site. Please recognize them in this thread for how they have impacted you and your photography. And please click on and open my award for these terrific, wonderful, eclectic photogs. Pride of authorship aside, I think it is a beautiful and fitting tribute. This is a chance to stand on the shoulders of giants and thank them for their inspiration.

This is a "love in" thread. Show these great great photogs some love!
