Rocko photo selected as finalist for Orvis Magazine Cover contest!

I think it was about 4 seasons ago now I snapped this photo of Rocko on the last day of our hunt in North Dakota. I entered it in a couple of more or less for fun photo contests and won both of them. The first one, the Coverdog Message Board contest, which I think ended up having nearly 400 entrants, and last year the No Limit Outdoors photo contest, which had nearly 500 entrants. This winter I was probably bored, and came across an outdoor photo contest for Orvis Magazine, and decided to enter it there. We have just been informed that we are one of 20 finalists for the cover, with over 13,000 entries. The final 20 photos will go to a panel of judges for a vote, and will find out in a month if we were fortunate enough to win. Either way, we are happy to even be considered, just goes to show how beautiful the outdoors is on a daily basis, especially when you are walking behind a setter!
