EP135 Winning (Or Not) And Finding Positives - Whatever The Outcome

Well, this weekend has two big events: Mother's Day and the Societies Of Photographers Annual Convention In London.  

Sadly I wasn't able to make the Convention this year - though I was there in spirit!  That didn't stop me entering the print competition though.  I didn't come away with any gongs this year and that always stings just a little.  Somehow, I have to convert the feeling of missing out on a fantastic convention with photographers who I love to spend time with (FOMO anyone?) and also not getting the scores I would have loved for my entries.

It's all part of the puzzle when it comes to entering photographic competitions.

Enjoy!

Cheers
P.
