"Through My Eyes..." First Baptist Gargoyles

And now...the winner of the Junior Division in the Arts Revive "Through My Eyes...Selma's Historic Architecture" photography contest.
This photograph of a gargoyle on the Gothic-designed First Baptist Church at Dallas Avenue and Lauderdale Street has the wings of an angel and the face of a lion. The photo was taken by Elizabeth Wilson, who I believe, already has a good eye for composition.

"Through My Eyes" Contest: Pettus Bridge Wins Again

This magnificent picture of the Pettus Bridge and Water Avenue buildings along the river at sunset won first place in the recent Arts Revive photography contest.
Kathy Price won $100 and a blue ribbon for her composition with the "Through My Eyes...Selma's Historic Architecture" theme. Photos had to include a view of all or some part of one of Selma's historic buildings. The photographs were displayed at Riverfront Market Day last weekend.

Last year's winner can be viewed HERE.
The 2007 theme was the river, and the blue ribbon picture featured a portion of the Pettus Bridge. Another bridge photo won third place this year while the St. Paul's Episcopal Church tower won second.

To see more winning photos, go to this article on The Selma Times-Journal website.
Note the gargoyle in the other blue-ribbon photo. It won the junior division and was entered by my young neighbor, Elizabeth Wilson.

Congratulations to all!
