Hi again, everyone, and welcome to the April Photos. We only had seven this month, but they're good ones.

Unfortunately, one of them is not posted, since the photographer was not able to get a signed slip from her subjects saying it's OK to post on the web. This is doubly unfortunate since it's (a) a great photo, and (b) one of the winners.

This month, we had a tie. Britney (the one not posted) took a photo of two sisters, with one giving the the other a kiss on the cheek, was one winner, and Josh's Happy Face was the other.

I particularly liked Audrey's effort. She took a picture of her sister (former student of mine, now in high school), and using Photoshop, manipulated it to give it that old Film noir look. Very nice, I thought. Perhaps could have been cropped a bit closer, but a very nice effort.

One more month to go, and then the montly winners will be entered for the grand prize.

As always, enjoy.

Mike, I have said it before but I look forward to your monthly post of the students work. They are all great again. I too like Audrey's film noir. Thanks for sharing and for being such a great influence to the future photographers in your class. Some teachers today just seem like they don't care. With the way you talk about your students I can clearly see that you are among the few that still seem to care. There are a few others here that are teachers also that fit in the class with you.
