and just when i thought poyi had no more surprises....

we found out earlier this week that a photo column entry for the tribune won an award of excellence. a big thanks to our boss gerik for putting the entries together. two of parker's photos and one of mine composed the winning entry.



i have a lot of fun with the "our town" photo column, that is unless i'm running around at the last minute freaking out about it. i hope i can spend more time with people in the coming year. or just take better photos like my friend tamika at the birmingham news who took home first place in photo column.



she started the column just a year ago, and wow, amazing stories and personalities. can't wait to see where the columns takes us in 2008.
