First Photography Award

A few weeks ago the dive club I belong to (Pacific Explorer's) had their annual Holiday Party at BJs which involves food, a raffle with lots of prizes and a photo and video contest. I submitted this jellyfish photo in the macro category:

You can never be sure what will turn up for competition - not at least until it's time to vote. There were a lot of good photos in the category but I took home the prize!

The Explorer's framed my photo on a gloss print and added a little plaque at the bottom that says "Best Macro Photo 2011, Chris Kenst, Pacific Explorers Dive Club". My first photography award!
