My favorite photography board, Clickin’ Moms, had a contest last month. The challenge was to go out and take a new picture that represented each letter of the alphabet. You could enter one photo for each letter. They had so many great prizes, I couldn’t resist the challenge. I had such a great time with it. It really got me thinking creatively and outside of my normal thinking. I took more photos in the month of April than I have in a long time. I was able to come up with something for almost every letter of the alphabet.

I have been on pins and needles watching and hoping that I would win something. Today I checked the blog and found that they have awarded prizes for letters A through T so far. Tomorrow they will announce the winners for U through Z.

Guess what?

I won two first place prizes and one second and one third. They only give out prizes for first place winners, but I am SO EXCITED! There were so many great entries and I am really honored that mine were chosen.

I won first place for the letter I with this photo:

I is for Invisible

I also won first place with this photo:

J is for Jump

I got second place with this photo:

G is for Grasshopper

Then I got third place for this photo:

K is for Kiss

I am really excited about this. I was really hoping that maybe one of my photos would win, but I am thrilled with these results.

I just saw this post about a great giveaway! I love Kristin Rachelle. Her photographs are so inspiring. And I also love newborn hats, so I just couldn’t resist posting about this. If you want to see some really inspiring photos and some cute hats, go check out her site!
