Sunsets Across America Photo Contest/Exhibit

Here's our card with information. . .

National Sunsets Across America Photo Contest

DearBubbie has had a full plate this past year (and she's been licking it clean, literally and metaphorically). Therefore, this blog has taken a back seat to a full-time job as a business owner, part-time job as DearBubbie, and other incidentals - like being a tennis player, wife and mother to pets.

You can find DearBubbie and all the Bubs and Bubbies at DearBubbie (that's ONE word) on Facebook. We hope you'll like enough to click "LIKE". We've been described as the Social Network's Answer to Ann Landers - and hope you can stop by. Soon, we will be updating this blog with 'reprints' from that page.

However, in the meantime, we're working on: "Sunsets Across America (and beyond...) Photo Contest/Exhibit" to be held in Sarasota, Florida on April 2 (rain date is April 9). We are hoping to get a susnset photograph from every state in the U.S. (Makes sense right?)

Everyone can participate - we'll be having separate categories for amateurs and professionals. And there is an Submission fee - but it's LOW compared to other shows. It's $20.00 to enter one photo. After that, $15.00. In most shows, they're considered 'juried exhibits'. That means, you enter, but your piece might NOT be accepted for viewing by the public. NOT SO in this case. Everybody's work will have a chance to be seen.

We have specials for people who post info on this contest on their blogs or websites or facebook pages. Just write to us at: Bubalexy@comcast.net for more info. We are trying our BEST to get this all on our website TODAY. Below is our press release for our event. . .we hope to hear from you. And on Facebook, look for JULIE LONDON PICTURE FRAMING and 'click like' for forthcoming details.
