Congratulations Swamp Gator

I hope that you don't get angry with me. You have been too modest for too long! If I had achieved what you did, I would be shouting it from the roof tops. Anyway, guys-Swamp Gator has photos that won FIRST and THIRD place in a photo contest. I don't know how to post a link but go to www.dpreview.com and you can see them. A couple of weeks ago, he won First place for a Water Lily (a little bit out of his area of expertise but it just shows how good he is to be able to diversify and win!). Last week he won FIRST place for a Skimmer photo and THIRD place for an Eagle photo in the same contest. Maybe we can sweet talk him into posting the photos here!

Molly, I went to dpreview.com and couldn't find SG's pictures. What are they under? Thanks for letting us know.
Congratulations, Swamp Gator, please post your winning pictures, we would all love to see them. From looking at all your posted pictures, you deserve to win. Congratulations again.

Oh wow Molly I am very flattered (and slightly embarrassed :oops: ) but greatly appreciate you thinking of me and mentioning these photos and how they did in the dpreview contests.
You are one of among several friends I have made here on the site, but you are certainly quite special! :D
Well since the cat is out of the bag, here are the links to the two contests and the photos featured in each.
Thanks again my dear. 8-) :-)

When you go to dpreview, select 'photos' then select 'finished challenges' and scroll to 'fast movement-birds'. I think the Water Lily is way farther down and maybe just titled'Water Lily'.

You are quite welcome. You deserve the praise. And since you are too modest to toot your own horn, I did it for you.

Those are great! Congrats! I actually tried to comment on the Skimmer photo on your website, but had some difficulty. That is one of my all time favorites! I know how hard it is to get that shot! Thanks, Molly, for sharing with us!

Congratulatons, or should I say CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!
I think the eagle should have been #2 if not #1.
I'd love to hear the story on how it was captured.
