Well, I didn’t win for the best photo blog in the 2010 Black Weblog Awards but I’m OK & have been taken off suicide watch.
While my news was not great, so many of my friends were winners & that makes me super excited for them!!!
Go – Mostbeautifullest, What Would Thembi Do?, Kiss My Black Ads, Afrobella, SoulBounce, Friday Favecast, & The Gentlemen’s Standard! You all rock out with your cocks out!
All in all, it was a pleasure just being nominated (I’ve always wanted to say that).
With this said, I would like to thank all of you who held & continue to hold me down with support & guidance. Next year? Maybe!

Tafari,
You are NOT a loser by any stretch of the word. In the few short months that I’ve been following your blog, you have gone from humble, but fantastic restaurant photo shoots right up to your recent big announcement of photographing the New York Fashion Week. As a textile artist who has dealings with the fashion industry, I know first hand how difficult it is to break into the rarefied ranks of Fashion Week.
Congratulations on the invitation to FW and congratulations on having such dedicated fans who voted for you despite your not taking out the top prize. 🙂

Tafari…I am proud of you anyway, and as always there another year. The winning is move is that you were nominated! (remember some are not even considered)

Tafari, I better type “slowly” or “spellcheck” next time I respond. I can’t go back and edit my last comment but I promise I don’t speak as bad as I type.
With that “broke azz english”!
