Self-serving horn tootin’
It’s been another busy week but one filled with good news. Not least of which was that the above photo of Native American dancers at the Cortez Cultural Center in Colorado earned me the “Photographer of the Year” award from the Central States Chapter of the Society of American Travel Writers (SATW). Thanks, folks!
All good news on the new house front as well. The inspections haven’t turned up any horrifying secrets and we are scheduled to close next week. Various contractors have already been lined up to meet us at the house soon after. We only have a week to get some bids going before we head for Michigan for a week of shooting and story research. I’ll be home for one day after that before catching another plane to South Carolina where I will be giving a presentation on digital photography workflow and image management. Hopefully, by the time I’m back from that trip, we’ll be ready to get things moving on the new house in hopes of moving in later this summer.
wooo-hooo Mikey! Congrats on your very cool award. Did you get a big trophy or plaque or special sash or something? I think that deserves some beer. Soon. And I’ll buy.

So cool! I’ve always thought you were photographer of the year.

That is terrific, Mike! Your recognition is well deserved.
After looking through you blog, I agree, you deserve the award.
I came over via P&P blogroll.
I’ll be back later and sift through more slowly.
Have a great week,
Troy
