gpp: focus on faces competition

while i was having my vacation in palawan, miss b sent me sms that i've won the gulf photo plus' focus on faces competition.

i didn't expect to win first prize and last monday, we attended the awarding ceremony. judged by chris hurtt and david hobby, they chose one of my entries called "contemplate", an old woman with her head bowed down. she was riding an abra staring at her purse for a long time. i took the shoot using nikki (d70s) with longnose (70-200mm) during our streetwalk in dubai creek. the prize is nikon d40x camera with 18-55mm vr lens.
