My Photo Did Not Get First Place at Fair

[Sam]

After a heavy rain storm on the Historic James River I took this photo of a beautiful rainbow hitting Jimmy Dean's estate's dock.

It was so nice that I entered it into the Virginia State Fair's photo contest along with my wife's "Grandma and Marlee" quilt.

Well, my wife won first place for her quilt and I did not get one "honorable mention" for my photo.

OK, that's the way it goes. Here is the photo for your view and enjoyment.

Sorry if it is on its side. I don't know how to move it around.

Well shoot. I can see why you lost. The picture is sideways.. ( just kidding sam. Looks really defined! ) 

Peace buddy!

Maybe the judges were vegans.

Yes. His estate is on the Historic James River just east of Richmond.

All good reasons

Please post a picture of the quilt.

It is a child's quilt with dolls you can remove and dress and undress.

Only photo I have from the fair.

The lower right corner kinda looks like Jimmy prepping a pig for the sausage maker...

My wife makes quilts for the grand kids.  She likes it a lot.  Very nice.

Please thank her. She knows what goes into a quilt. Appreciate the feedback.
