Hi all! I haven't posted on this forum in ages, but I still lurk to see all the great photos from you veterans and newbies.
I have kind of a weird question. Last winter, our town's parks & rec dept. sponsored a winter photo contest - you could enter up to 5 images, and they had to be taken during Nov-March in our town. I sent in 3 photos, and one of them won 2nd place! Yea me!
Unfortunately no big money prize, just a couple of gift cards to local businesses. But I still got bragging rights 
So about a month ago in the mail, we got this year's winter parks & rec catalog of what classes/activities are offered, and lo and behold, my photo was on the cover! NOT the photo that won 2nd place, but one of the others that I submitted. And even better, they gave me credit, in very small print, but it says in the corner: "Photo by Amy ***".
Well, I'd like to get this framed - it's the first time one of my photos is on the cover of anything. My question: do I cut off the cover and only frame that, or do I put the entire catalog in the frame? It's only about 20-24 pages, so it's not real thick or anything. My initial thought is to preserve the catalog as it is and frame the whole thing, but I'm not quite sure. What do you think?
In case you're wondering, this is the photo that won 2nd place:

And this is the photo that did NOT win, but they thought it was worthy of the cover of this year's catalog:
