UT Photo Students Take Home the Ribbons

I keep getting more and more information about students who won more and more ribbons. I am adding them as fast as I get them. Please check back to see them all.

The Tennessee Vally Fair in Knoxville has completed their photography contest. Several students emailed me to make sure I knew that several of my previous students had placed very well.

Actually, it appears they did better than placed well, they apparently took home about all they could haul. I am very pleased and proud of all of them. I hope I have not missed anyone, I am just going by the info and images that have been emailed to me. If I missed you, please send your winning images and placement information.


In no particular order,
here is what our UT photo students submitted and won. I can't tell you how proud I am of all of them. This should be an inspiration and goal for all new students. You can do it if you try. tom

I can't believe it! Tom has a blog!!! Thanks for posting our stuff, many thanks for the great education...oh yeah, it was 9 months ago that I didn't which end of a camera did what.

As Randy said, thanks for the education. You and all the other instructors have been terrific and a great wealth of information. To see the changes in my photos from 2 years ago to now is hard to believe. Without the help from the others that teach the UT classes the other students and especially you, I know I would not have the skills that I build on each and every day. I still struggle as to which end is the right end of the camera to use.

All great shots, and something to shoot for (pun intended!). Also noticed some familiar names with the great phots (Lori Douthat from old IT Corp?)

Thanks to Tom for everything so far thie Fall.
