I myself entered the competition with 9 shots but I'm living in cork and couldn't afford to move to dublin for the award winning ceremony. I've already written several times to dave without getting any answer so I thought you could be my last hope to know the final winners of this competition!! I discovered once on spectra's homepage the winning photography from brendan tangney but have still no idea of the other winners. It can seem a little bit stupid but I really feel disappointed by the fact I paid 15 euros to print my shots and thus entry the competition and I couldn't get any email or single information about the results. It was the first photography competition I was taking part to and to tell you the truth I felt really excited by it and was impatiently waiting for the final decisions of the jury.. So I know it's not your job and I'm sorry to annoy you with it, but as you really seem to be the only one still according importance to the results and their interpretation I hope you will be able to help me to discover the 12 other winners! Thanks very much in advance for your time and comprehension. jean-baptiste Hi jonathan,
