Yay, Quilly!!

Today I got an email from Quilly over at Quilly's Pacific Paradise. It is referring to a photo challenge I hosted a short time ago, called Bridging The Gap! You can check out my photos for Bridging The Gap if you like in the Photo Challenges area, and you will also see my photos for other challenges there.

Here is Quilly's email to me:


Thank you, Alice. This morning our local news station, KGMB9 used my photos in a breaking news story -- and they couldn't have done it if it weren't for Bridging the Gap!

-Quilly!


It is a sad event that Quilly's photos were used for, and yet I think it's totally 'kewl' that someone from the news found these photos and used them. Kudos to Quilly!!


(EDIT: Jan. 25 - Quilly included a link to the story, and has now let me know that the story has been updated and her photos of the bridge replaced by photos of the wrecked autos. Of course! They are much more sensational and blood thirsty for the masses to enjoy. Therefor, I updated my post and removed the link.)

Thanks for the photo kudos, Alice. I had to drive by the scene of the accident this afternoon and, though the accident was cleaned up, the ground at the road side was all chewed up, and a huge area of the road was covered in the oil soak they sprinkle after accidents.

The link doesn't showcase my photos anymore. They updated the story and posted photos of the wrecked vehicles.

Anonymous Quilly... thanks for letting me know. I've now 'updated' my post too, lol.

Have an awesome day!
