Catch up IUSA & Master's Degree award

I was going back through all the drafts I had started when I stopped posting back in November to start cleaning them out. I normally wouldn't post about something so far past, but I just felt this post was to important to skip over and delete! I know I had posted about it briefly on my facebook, but even that was short lived when I came home and had to catch up on a week worth of emails!

Print Competition of 2011 was a really important competition for me. I only needed four more merits to get my Master Photographer Degree from Professional Photographer's of America. Well, two of my prints merited and then went Loan giving me the four merits I needed. Those two images were also published in PPA's Loan Collection book.
