Making the Cut
The Belleza photo contest (phase one) is over and 20 talented photographers made the cut. I did not.
But hey, that's OK. I have Chav now and I think he and I will have a long and happy relationship :D. But for any of you that are still in the running, hats are tipping.
And if any of those 20 folks are in my readership -- and I have to believe SOME must be -- please let us see what you submitted. Add a comment with a link to an online spot where your photo resides. Heavens! If you are a blogger, BLOG a post with your winning photo and add the link. Crow a little. It's OK.
Since there were evidently tons of folks that entered, I am guessing they are curious too.
And those of you who are up on the bleachers with me? Feel free to post a link to the photo that didn't get you a slot in the next phase of the competition. I bet you worked hard on that photo. Let's see it!
Anyone who wants to let us in on the next phase details (assuming it isn't a secret), please do.
Congrats to all!
Update: Tricky Boucher of Belleza wrote to let me know that once the second round is done, photos of the finalists will be posted. That's all the intel I have at the moment :D.

I'm one who entered and did not make it. It was fun, however, and I got to practice some favorite techniques, and one or two new ones.
The image I submitted is here.
Thanks for posting Ran. I recognized your photo shoot spot and didn't know it was still around. Great bar nearby -- or their used to be.
Hopefully we'll get to see the winners in the not too distant future.
Looking forward to seeing the finalists. I found one or two finalists via Flickr, among them photographer Graphic Dix, whose portfolio of work on his site (and his contest image) are really something else.
I guess I would just like to be able to follow along with the contest -- sort of like Dancing with the Stars. But we will see what wee see when we see it *wink*.
