Thanks muchly Patrick- they got back to me this morning and it turns out
that they can send me the letter here in the UK! So I've got approximately 4
days to get back to Devon to check my mail- how exciting. :-)

Anyway, here it is again:

Ryan,
First and foremost. C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S!!
I guess a proper print should be an acceptable substitute to a photocopy.
How about quenching our curiosity and posting the image somewhere,
provided that that is not against competition rules and would get you
disqualified. If' that's so we'll wait until all is over.

Dear Mr Ryan Lee;
Thank you very much for your entry to the UNEP International Photographic
Competition on the Environment 2004-2005. We are pleased to inform you
that
out of entries received from 169 countries all over the world, we have
selected your photograph(s) as a candidate for final judging.

Ok. Ration one minute for hyperventilation- now compose yourself Ryan.
Apparently it's a pre-letter email giving me a heads up on what -is-
coming
in the mail. Good news right?? I don't know at the moment. Apparently
they
want the highest quality source of the image sent back to them by
Christmas
Eve, and they want me to verify that the photocopy they send me is indeed
my
work. Insert problem. Ryan doesn't live at the address he used to in
Australia because he's had to move out; all of his mail now goes to a PO
Box. Ryan's original image was on film- the negative is back in
Australia,
in a box in a friend's house. Ryan's currently in the UK with,
fortunately,
his laptop, which should have a 300dpi Noritsue scan somewhere in there-
but
practically this means that will be the only thing I can send back, sans
the
photocopy they send me.
Also, the photo contest is judged, amongst others, by Sebastiao Salgado
and
Raghu Rai. Insert two minutes of hyperventilation.
Insert another problem, Ryan is still having an intermittent out of body
experience. Whatever shall I do!!
Discombobulatedness!
Ryan
