Coming back from a trip I often have pictures that look like postcards. These are always great ho have in your albums, photo books and galleries, but I always feel there is more you can do.
One interesting idea is to submit them to photo contests.  Discover America through Postcards® accepts pictures from U.S., Canada, Mexico, or South America, selects finalists and makes them into e-postcards featured weekly on the Postcards from America website.
I submitted a picture from Miami, FL and it is now a second finalist in the contest. It was taken from my hotel room window. This was one of the rare occasions when a garden view trumped ocean view hands down. So keep shooting, you never know where your award worthy shoot will come from.
