You might want to consider the contests run by Santa Fe Photographic Workshops. They use known photographers as jurors and you are up against quite a number of photographs. You can score a free workshop there if you win. Here is a link.

I offer my congratulations on your PX3 Gold award. I looked at the PX3 website and it seems to be a very prestigious contest. Have you entered other contests? I want to ask a question in the forum, I do not want you to take offense or think I belittle your award. I simply want to ask “Which are the most prestigious contests? Which are the ones worth entering?” Or something like that, I’m still thinking about the wording. And… congratulations on your award. I enjoyed your wining photograph, how the shadows complete the tree. Very sophisticated.
