Hi Shango, Traditionally, the homeshow is not so much a photography competition as an opportunity for folks to get their fish and aquascapes judged live without having to bring them to the club. So part of the whole "fun" is having a team of judges, photographer and videographer caravaning around the puget sound area over a weekend. In addition, having video of all the tanks adds a certain continuity to the event. Don't take me wrong; I was glad we got to have the home show last year. But it was a completely different type of contest. - Erik On Wed, 6 May 2009, Shango Los wrote: > No one needs to photo my tank. That is part of the draw for me to practice > and learn.
