Online competition win (using a WG-3)

I just found out a photograph I took (using my Pentax WG-3) has won an online competition run by a picture frame company link

Quite apart from being very pleased, it made me think. I have, up to now, been fairly reticent in 'getting out there' and submitting to magazines or entering competitions, but now I think it may be time to review that policy.

Do other people regularly send stuff out, either as competition entries, or to be considered for publication? If so, are there any particular thoughts or useful info you could share?

Tim.

Congrats Tim, it's a great shot!

I do enter the odd competition but that's about as far as it goes...
