Hoffmaster's Wildlife Photography Contest

I have been pretty busy working with my uncle but I had just enough time to take a trip to Ludington State Park with Miranda on May 21st. We had a nice time. Watching a guy catch a big walleye was pretty neat while admiring the water flow over the Hamlin Lake Dam. On our way back to the car I was stopped by a gentleman. He asked me if I took a picture of the fawn.

The picture of that fawn is now my entry into the first photography contest I've ever participated in. Hoffmaster State Park, in Muskegon Michigan, is hosting the contest. Contest information can be found here.

So far, one comment given stands out: "The photo you entered into the Wildlife Photography Contest at the Gillette Sand Dune Visitor Center is top notch for quality."

While I absolutely love compliments like that (who wouldn't?), I can not take credit for such an amazing thing. One guy fishing was at the right place at the right time; then he decided to ask a guy with a camera if he had seen this great thing. Nature did the hard work. A few clicks of a button, a quick transfer to the computer, and a little touching up is hardly anything to take credit for.
