Earlier this month, I entered my first photos into a competition. The competition, Nordic Nature Photo Contest, is for nature photos taken in the Nordics. After thoroughly reviewing this years photos, I found that most of the photos I wanted to submit was from my trip to Flatanger earlier this year (Eagles, seagulls and seagulls)
The “main entry”, so to speak, is a series of photos of a white tail eagle that is on approach to pick up a fish in the water. At the last moment, a competitor comes in and snatches the fish right before his claws…

The nice thing about the series is that all the photos are pin sharp, so they can be used in multiple settings…
I also decided to enter other photos from the same trip:

I also entered this one:
I discovered (to my surprise) that this photo had been selected to be “Squirrel photo of the week” on the web site OMGSQUIRREL.COM…
So now, I have to wait for the results to be in…
