And the Oscar goes to....

Not my picture, but for me, it's without a doubt THE picture of the day!!!!! I WON A 18-300 mm Tamron lens for my camera from http://digital-photography-school.com !!!! Just read about it!
It was a competition in December, and the only one thing you had to do is to write why do you want/need the lens. It seems that my last-minute-before-the-deadline strike of inspiration was lucky.
Thank you, DPS for the lens and for all the tutorials and articles on photography! This is a great resource, and I highly recommend it to everyone.
Fantastic, great news!

So pleased for you Vera! Congrats. I use DPS a lot and find them so informative - never entered one of their competitions before though - obviously an error :) Enjoy the Tamron - I've heard good things about it.

Congratulations!!! Have fun with your new lens. And thanks for the tip on DPS, I'll have to check it out!!

Thank you all! I am sure the best outcomes of this prise will be all posted here! @chauncygirl - The site was very nice, I especially like that they have many beginners articles that are not overwhelming. Many of what they post are of the format "5 things that would improve your photos" or "10 camera settings that you need to master today" :) Despite of it sounding a bit simplified, it actually helps me a lot, as it "breaks up" a lot of things into digestible pieces of information that I can remember and use next time I take a picture (or, in real life - the ones that come back to me after I took a picture and look at it later). They are also on Facebook, and I like to get their posts that way - one or two topics a day.
@pistache Clare, I am glad there are more people who like the site. You should try and enter some of the competitions. Now I know it is possible to be lucky and win!

Спасибо! Если бы давали призы за фотоуспехи, мне бы он не светил!!! Теперь осталось выиграть еще и штатив, и какие-нибудь полезные фильтры (и еще научиться их использовать) :) А на самом деле, я очень рада - а то я очень часто объективы меняю, уже очень надоело.
January 31st, 2015  
Brilliant! congratulations
January 31st, 2015  
Congrats on the new lens.. I'm looking forward to seeing what comes out of it.. no pressure :-)
January 31st, 2015  
That is awesome news. Have fun with your new lens. :)
January 31st, 2015  
Fantastic! Congrats for you!!
January 31st, 2015  
@vera365 забудьте про фильтры - все сделает правильное программное обеспечение.

@roulin
Его тоже пока нет! :) Но по-моему, неотвратимо надвигается необходимость его приобретения.
January 31st, 2015  
Thank you, Susie, Bruce, Nova and Danette! I am also looking forward to seeing what comes out of it, Bruce!!!! :)

Wow! Congrats!

Congratulation! I bet it made you the day. I hope to see some pictures from you using this new lens.
February 4th, 2015  
Thank you, Jenny, Branwen and Renata! I am sure most of the stuff I shoot afterwards would be with that lens - finally less lens changes and the family going like "Guys, can you wait, mom is changing a lens. Again.... " :)
