We heard back from Michelle and Kris today.  Out of the twenty total images they selected from the sixty-plus submitted by all three groups, FOURTEEN of them were AzAP images.  Based on the strength of the initial submissions and on that of the ones selected by the judges to represent us, I had a feeling we'd have a strong showing, but I wasn't expecting 70%.  Couldn't be prouder of y'all right now.  Thanks to everyone who submitted images, and a special thanks to the judges.  It was not an easy task whittling the pool of submissions down to twenty shots, and to do so under the time crunch we were up against makes what they did even more remarkable. 

Thanks again to everyone who participated.

[Mike Franzone]

That is most excellent. 

[Chris Kennedy]

Way to go guys!

[Jay Beckman]

Outstanding Job Guys!!!

[Jeff D. Welker]

Tremendous job everyone.

[Chris Kennedy]

Does that mean AzAP gets 70% of the spots for the next photo call?   

[Paul Dumm]

WOW, these blew mine away!  Great job!

[Joe Copalman]

Updated the post to show the names of the photographers.  (Watermarks notwithstanding, we thought it would be best to make the submissions about the photos, not the photographers themselves).

[Chris V]

Great work all around by everyone!!

[Matt Ottosen]
