Another Award (Not That I’m Complaining!)

May 26th, 2009

062 - Beach Shop Seems like 2009 is turning out to be a really good year! First the Modernist Architecture exhibition, then the Press & PR award and now this. I received an email yesterday evening notifying me that I gained a nomination in the Fine Art category of the International Photography Masters Cup, which is one of the largest competitions of its kind in the world. Thousands of images are submitted from over 90 countries, and the judging panel is made up of the “who’s who” of photography – and by that I mean the like of Christie’s, National Geographic, Fox Broadcasting Company and so on. I’m still digesting the news.

The nominated image is one of my first works to be exhibited, and is entitled “Beach Shop”. The image portrays the common and generally unnoticed as glamorous and imposing, creating an impact through the realisation that whilst most of us have seen this or similar scenes before, we never really gave it such importance. Beauty is also in the simple things, and it is up to the photographer to realise this and portray it.
