Just a quick update on the SOYA (spirit of Youth Awards) which peter told us about here.

I just received this email which means we will find out the winner very soon (I have my fingers crossed (But I know I wont win)):

A huge thanks to all of you who sent in art to SOYA.

We received nearly 7500 submissions!

We've gone through all your amazing artworks and have shortlisted the finalists in each category. This was no easy task, as the quality of work was really high.

We are now creating galleries featuring the finalists work in each category. These will be live on the site in the SOYA SHOWCASE section soon. We also plan to showcase heaps of the other SOYA submissions that rocked. You'll be sent an email if your work is live on the site.

Stay Tuned!!

The NOISE Team.

Yea I entered with about 20-30 submissions. I don't really expect to win, but it would be great if they put up some of my photos.
