After baring my soul in the Royal Wedding blog including all of the lows of the day, it’s time for some straight good news; I just won second place in the NPPA Photojournalism 2011 awards: “Olympic Features” category! Whoop!
Big congratulations should also go to AFP colleague Carl de Souza for his Honourable Mention in the Sports Picture Story category with his awesome work from Pakistan. Nice one, bud!



Congratulations. Superb timing of your shot.
Cheers squire!
Well done mate. Lookin forward to more award winners when we cover Wimblers next week!
Cheers bud! Very kind of you. See you on the grass!
Well done!!
And I haven’t forgotten that I totally called this as your best shot from the games!
Indeed I do! I will therefore give you half of the prize money. *waits by letterbox for non-existent cheque to arrive*
that really is a great shot, amazingly well executed!
Well done, it is such a good shot. Hopefully I’ll be able to do some trumpet blowing myself one day.
