WOW! This photo was awarded Best in Show at the Stanwood, WA  AAUW show. Pretty impressive really, since according to a reliable source, the judge honestly does not prefer photography as an art form!

That, and the fact that although it is a juried exhibition, we did not realise that the art work is judged! LOL…imagine Bec’s surprise upon walking into the patron party to find out her Photo had won the whole show!

It is an awesome photograph, and the print that was submitted has sold, however, Bec will be taking a replacement to hang up there tomorrow.

She has an exceptional portfolio covering a variety of themes. She really isn’t into humans and animals…this shot happened while doing other studio work, when the cat (Demeter) decided she wanted to investigate the lens of Bec’s camera!

If you have a chance to drop by the show, it’s located in Stanwood, WA at the Floydd Norgaard Center, next to the Historical Societies museum…ask anywhere in town they will give you directions.

There are other phenominal artists represented there as well covering media that includes: Glass, Oil and Water Color Paintings, Jewelry, and traditional arts.

To contact Bec to purchase prints or greeting cards you can reach her at duvina@verizon.net

To Weave a Web

Well, once again my friend is out in all weather taking photos. Most photographers choose sunny weather, not Bec. She is the intrepid storm beast…in fact I may blame all of our bad weather upon her insane urge to get hip deep in the freezing Puget Sound, and brave wind, falling trees, and power lines.

Her work is well represented at this weekend’s AAUW show in Stanwood, WA.

Large and small prints are available for sale.

I have to say…I love her work, even if she’s too brave for her own good ;)
