Show the World Your Best Photograph - And Win

I SHOT IT is a website that allows photographers to submit their photos in various competitions for a small fee. Entries are judged by a panel of well-known photographers and the winner recieves a cash prize and an $800 Leica V-Lux 40, the greater the number of entries, the greater the prize money. The most recent Dog Photo competition that ended yesterday closed with almost 1,000 entries and $1,200 in prize money.

One of the current running competitions is Sports so all you fly fish photogs could get in on the action.

Wait, is fly fishing a sport?

There are also a number of other categories that would be applicable to the world of fly fishing photography.

Olympus Tough TG-2 Review

While visually similar to its predecessor the TG-1, the TG-2 features improved ruggedness and close up capabilities as well as a water-repellent coating to the front element of the lens to reduce the possibility of water droplets ruining your pictures. One of the best features on both models is their ability to accept an accessory fisheye or teleconverter lens.

I replaced my Pentax point and shoot in January with a TG-1, the 2 was not yet available, and have been really pleased with the results. The water repellent lens coating feature on the new model would have come in handy a couple of times however.
