CORRECTIONS ….. On page 2 — There were two items near the bottom on Roman Kurywczak and one on the Camera Naturalist Photo Club. While most of the details of the award are correct, they were about an award given to Camera Naturalist as a club not to Roman as an in-dividual. Although he is the club's president, he did have at least one of the 20 entries that were submitted under the club's name. To contact editor, please email [email protected]
