"Ordinary" or not, your timing was very good, and it's well-exposed. All of which carries it out of the ordinary into the unique.
Apparently no-one else came up with an image that captured the sense of the moment like you did. You deserved the award...


Good job, keith whaley

Hi everybody,

The winning picture was actually taken at a preview before the actual
 parade. The events are exactly the same as the actual day, except that the
VIPs do
 not turn up. I won the 2nd Prize, the 1st being an Ixus V2 with CP-100 and
 the 3rd Prize is a Canon Powershot A40. The winning photos were never used
 for any publicity or published and the prizes were collected from the
office of the
 entertainment magazine in which the contest was published.

 The picture can be seen here. It is rather average and I wasn't expecting
to
 win. The performers were supposed to run with the balloons to form a criss
 cross pattern before releasing the balloons. I missed that moment though.
