End of Year Competition
We will be picking up the end of year prints and digital files at the 2nd meeting in May, May
24th. Members can enter up to 4 prints or digital files for each category. The prints or digi-
tal images MUST have been entered in a club competition during the current club
year from July 1, 2010 through May 24, 2011. You can either bring the digital on a CD,
or email me with the digital category, month entered, and title. If on a CD, it should be the
same size and use the same file name that was used in the club competition.

“Scores of 15” Congratulations, Way to Go!!!
Randy Carr received
three scores of 15 in
the March Print
Competition.
Charles Taylor and Randy Carr
both received scores of 15 in the
April Print Competition.
That little bird
has chosen his
shelter. Above
it are the stars
and the deep
heaven of
worlds. Yet he
is rocking
himself to sleep
without caring
for tomorrow’s
lodging, calmly
clinging to his
little twig and
leaving God to
think for him.
~ Martin

Don’t ask what
the world
needs. Ask
what makes
you come alive
and go do it.
Because what
the world
needs is
people who
have come
alive.
