This past weekend both Cheryl and I attended the Professional Photographers of Ohio's (PPO) spring convention in Dayton. It is always a lot of fun talking with fellow Ohio photographers and listening to some highly respected and talented photographers speak.

We sat in many seminars dealing with children, families, seniors and weddings. I think you can always learn more, no matter what you do.

I competed in the print competition this year. I entered 4 different prints and 2 wedding albums. I was very happy to receive 3 merits. Photographers need 25 merits to become a master. Half of your merits come from print competition and the other half from continued education. A few years ago Cheryl obtained enough merits to become a master! It is a hard long process, and I have only just begun!!

All and all it was a fun but exhausting weekend!
