I just received a letter from the local council and instead of it being a demand for payment of late rates... it was a prize cheque for a photo competition I had entered :)
they were giving away 2 $250 and 5 $100 prizes and I picked up one of the $250 prizes (my friend who told me about the competition scored the other major prize)

Looking towards the future

Nicely done Keith, although I'm a little worried that the kids are out and about having a glass or two of wine in front of such a nice sunset ;)

With slightly different product placement, this could be a really nice catalogue shot (sorry if that's a bit of a downer ;) ).

Nice shot ! Hopefully they won't be funding for the prizes through rises in council rates :)
