the e-amil was an invitation to the winners ceremony.
but it has peaked mmy interest into the contest, seems like they only want an entry fee...

| This one came up earlier in the year. A 'scam' I believe. I received one as well - didn't even bother reading it - just deleted it. Check the old forums - I think about April or May. |

| Black and White Spider awards are announced tomorrow. I entered last year and this, not a 'scam'. A couple of friends whos are members here scored in the Color awards, put on by the same people. My multiple entries are in silhouette and nature, but I screwed up the pp on my strongest entry, submitted the wrong version. A bunch of my horse shooter friends also entered. |

Hmmm, I'm replying to myself:
1st place: Nature professional
Nominee in Nature pro
Nominee in Abstract pro and Nature pro (1)
BW version of my Beatles DPC entry, "Ticket To Ride".
nominee for silhouette pro:
They didn't like this one, oh well:
Not bad for $95 in entry fees!

How much money did you win?

Hi, Rex, the prize was not directly monetary--but valuable considering how wide of a distribution the calendar and source book gets. Much better than sending out a bunch of my own postcards to some slice of creative/art directors out there across the world. As a fan of black and white photography, I'm pretty stoked about this sort of recognition, means I'm on the right track--and the nature category is so incredibly broad, for an animal shot to do this well is also meaningful. Unlike a local gallery or exhibition, the submissions were in the thousands rather than hundreds, and the quality of the judges world-class.
Their upcoming "Color Awards" have more monetary prizes. Same format, pro and amateur. |

| Thanks, but it pales next to photographer of the year! So cool, and in so many categories. |
