Default Mel (aka Britgirl) has her name on a billboard
I always follow Mel's blog because she has such a wonderful sense of humor.. not sure if anyone else saw it today but she won a contest with her photography and one of her photos along with her name (in really large letters) are going to be on several very large billboards.!!!!!!!

Here's the link http://britgirl.typepad.co.uk/

Way to go Mel! I hope you have your photography business in the yellow pages. Many people may be looking it up to see who is this person who took such a lovely photo.
