It should make us all proud to be part of something with so many incredibly talented people. When your photo does well or even not so well in a challenge you know that you accomplished something against some of the best in the business.
Congratulations to our own GordonMcGregor for having his Photo "!"Waiting for Bats"" which finished sixth in the "Corner of the World" challenge chosen to air tonight on the KVUE News at 10 in Austin, Texas. Another feather in his already full cap!
I was stationed with the Air Force in San Antonio. The bats taking off in the evening were so numerous that they show up on radar. You could always tell when evening occurred as a big fuzzy cloud popped up on some of the radar screens an then dispersed.
I guess I do not get KVUE News at 10 in Austin, Texas in virginia right ? How did you get there gordon ( I mean independantly of the merit of the picture by itself ? ) And that's TOP OF THE TOP Gordon Lionel
That's really great Gordon. I'm happy for you. I wish I could see it somehow. However, A year or two ago I did see some TV coverage of that place. It was unbelievable watching the bats coming, endlessly, out from under the bridge.
They run a daily photo competition through the web site at www.kvue.com for the weather, so I just submitted. This is the second time I've had a pic selected.

It's not vanity Gordon .... it's being proud and happy and share this achievment moment with us, poor guys not living in your area to watch it. THAT'S GREAT I am really happy I have seen this picture of your shot on TV.
posting it here does not even qualify for a sin, -3 not meet the challenge ;-)
That's Awesome Gordon. Cool shots of the tube too. I wonder if anyone will be in Times Square tomorrow when my Kodak Photo of the Day is supposed to be shown. If anyone is around there I sure would appreciate it. Here is the photo that is to be shown:

SO where/ how does it get shown, Doug ? Is it on a billboard, a TV screen, or what ? I could see it on a huge billboard - now that would be cool!

It's supposed to be shown every few seconds on a Kodak sign in Times Square. I envision a TV like screen or something. I don't know for sure. It is also going to be the photo all day on their website.

I could definitely be wrong... but I may have seen Doug's owl picture pop up at 10:11 a.m. ET on the Times Square Cam. I wouldn't swear on a Bible to it, though... the picture occupies about a quarter of the screen it's being shown on.
