I am so excited! I entered into PPA's image competition for the first time - it was super scary! But I did it, and two of my images earned a "merit" - meaning they met the 12 elements of a merit image, and will go on to the International Print Competition next year. Such an honor, and it was so fun to watch the judging, which happened in Detroit this year for the Northeastern District. These are the images:
