I really hate contests and awards.
But what the hell.
Since I've shot the cover twice and they still let me enter I thought I would do it.
I've never entered before and there are some really good shots from others.
These are not necessarily my picks. But my friends seem to like them for this particular competition.
The rules of this contest are quite vague. I personally chose to use pictures shot in Albuquerque as it is a local magazine.
Well it turns out that the winners are selected by the Alibi staff!
The voting by the public is "just for fun".
So this shameless self promotion blog is pointless.
But anyway...
Drumroll please...
My 3 entries in the Alibi 7th Annual Photo Contest;
Twinkle Light Parade Choppers, Up from Downtown, Pledge of the Nitro Piper.
Category: ¡Que Albuquerque!—Anything that profiles or captures the spirit of Burque.
Category: This Modern Life—Architecture, street scenes, the weird and wonderful world of the manmade.
Category: People Are People—Human-focused photos.
I suspect some hater has purposely clicked the thumbs down on all of them today.
Because it appears to give you 1 point rather than 2 when you do that.
