Another award but more confusion

My quest for gaining a qualification continues and the first salon of the year announced its results this week.

I only had one acceptance this time with 'Fluid Motion' but it was awarded a ribbon of which there are only 3 so I am very pleased with that even if I am not really sure what it means.

the confusion comes as one of my images was previously accepted, this time scored the lowest it could.

On making enquiries on the facebook pages, my image had been entered in monochrome but they can see that perhaps it is not just black and white so should have been entered in a different category.

On looking closer, I can now see what they mean. You live and learn I guess
