I was looking on the NME's website like 2 months ago and saw they were running this photography competition so I thought why not enter it?
I forgot about it due to starting college on a National Dip. in Photography course for a bit then tonight I was browsing their website and saw that the'd announced a short list so I had a look in the category I'd entered, 15-17 as I'm 16 and there was MY photo of Pete Doherty.
I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT. I was shaking like all over, couldn't hold the phone so that I could tell my parents and I feel quite over excited about it by just typing this!!! And its being sponsored by the British Music Experience at the O2 and all winners and shortlisted entries will be exhibited there too!
But really, even though I am with an online music magazine, it has made the journey to this point in time and walking up Oxford Street to instores when I first started shooting gigs so worthwhile I can't really put it into words!!
