Every year I enter photos into the one of the larger local fairs here in Connecticut. There are a large number of entries. I usually enter both the Salon categories as well as some of the snapshot categories. Two ribbons this year, as follow:
Digitally Enhanced Category, Landscape and Architecture Class - SECOND PLACE 
K20D/Pentax DA 16-45mm
Snapshots by Adults Category, People Class - FOURTH PLACE 
K10D/Tamron 28-70mm
