What a fun round of videos on “The Little Things” from a very talented group! Thank you all for your entries that made us think, made us laugh, and gave us so much enjoyment. They were ALL winning entries!

Thanks, also, to Meryem Ersoz for creating the UWOL Challenge and nurturing it to become the premiere nature/wildlife online contest that it is, and to Chris Hurd for giving the challenge a home here on DV info Net.

Okay, the moment you’ve waited for is here. Out of this batch of great videos emerged one that earned the top spot. With only nine entries we’ll post the top two vote-getters.

Runner Up: Ruth Happel with “Spring’s Little Things”
So nice to have you back in the challenge, Ruth, and with a very entertaining entry!

WINNER of UWOL 22: Mike Sims with “Zoo in a Dewdrop.”
Well done, Mike! You gave us a fascinating, educational, and professionally-produced glimpse into a tiny, generally unseen world. A very well-deserved win. Congratulations, UWOL 22 Champion!!

Another great round is in the record books. Mark your calendars now for UWOL 23. Sign up will begin the last week in May. Until then, happy shooting!

Congratulations Mike- I knew I shouldn't have voted for you ; )

Thanks Lorinda for taking over, it is great to be back with such a fun and supportive group of filmmakers. I am looking forward to June.

In case anyone is curious about me, a colleague of mine has written a book, The Great Animal Orchestra, featuring many of our recording trips gathering animal sounds around the world. His book was published last month, and will be on the front page of the New York Times Book Review this weekend.

Way to go Mike and Ruth!
It was a fun event, and I learned a lot from participating, and
watching all the entries.
We'll see you again this summer.
