Default Finally!! Pictures from the Ward Carving Championship

I was FINALLY able to get my photos resized for the web and uploaded.

Hope you like them, it was a great show again this year.

I did notice that the crowd was smaller this year, I was actually able to walk around and take pictures without waiting too long for people to stroll by and get out of the line of fire!

There some amazing carvers out there... you know who you are!

PS> the page is large, 399 thumbnails, so give it a bit of time to load!!

Hi Michael, Great Pictures, You did Good. It didn't take long to download the pictures. I liked all of them but one jumped out at me was the Parrot with the ruffled feathers on how it was done. It would seem that they were done separately. Fascinating. Are any of them yours? Merle

Well done.

I'd love to go to that type of show. We've a lot going for us, in God's Country, but nothing like that.

OK folks I know I am very computer challenged, but I should be able to find these photos. They sure don't come up when I search Ward 2008. Am I missing something?

Thanks Michael for the great shots. What a lot of patience and care in those pieces. Kind of show one could get lost in for hours.

Thanks Ash! It is worth it. With my eyesight, I could not tell that it was a "clickable link". It just looked like black type....

Those are some beautiful pictures and so far out (or a level above) my league that I'm not sure how to comment. The people who do this kind of detailed carving are indeed special. Thanks for posting the link.
