Here in Oklahoma City there's a neat place called Remington Park, it's a casino and has horse racing. Last week they announced a photo contest for their thoroughbred opening weekend. So I wondered out there and took a few pics. By the time I got there it was almost dark outside and my poor Sony A230 doesn't handle low light very well. Anyway this is the pic I got and won 2nd place in the contest.



It's not a fantastic shot by any means and a little blurry from the noise reduction I had to do, but hey it got me $60 in free play at the casino and dinner for 2 at their high dollar buffet. The only bad thing was that when I emailed the picture in, I was on my wife's user name on the laptop so outlook was on her email and she is getting credit for the picture :( She is loving it though and is rubbing it in that "her" pic got 2nd place.

Your wife needs to reshoot, the overlap with the scoreboard is a real problem. Tell her I said so :-)

You can't enter your wife's photo, its against the rules:

Your submission must be:

- taken and post-processed by you. Someone else may press the shutter button if you set up the shot and the camera settings. No one else may post-process your entry for you. Exceptions must be approved by the Site Council in advance.
