I am happy that one of my underwater images, Diver and Whaleshark, was selected for the juried competition sponsored by Photo Alliance.  The juror was William Wegman, one of my all time favorite artists. (You may know him from the images of the dogs in various positions and in costumes or scenes).  The Fauna exhibit will open Saturday, Oct 25th at the Smith Anderson North Gallery in San Anselmo.  Photo Alliance is an important photographic organization in San Francisco, dedicated to supporting the understanding, appreciation and creation of contemporary photography. More details on the linked images.

 

I am very happy to share this news:  I have won second place in the International Fine Art Photography Competition, in the landscape/seascape/nature category.  This contest, also known as the Grand Prix de la Decouverte, is based in Paris, and culminates in an exhibit of finalists and winners in the Paris Salon de la Photo, November 7-11.  My winning image, “Kelp and Fish over Sandscape,” will be in this exhibit.  This is a wildly international juried  exhibit!  See you in Paris!

I’m pleased to be showing eight of my “Deeper” underwater prints at Art Intersection, in the Phoenix area. The winners’ exhibit for the Light Sensitive juried competition opens on November 2nd.  The top three winners are exhibiting together: I’ll be sharing the show with two other women artists who also make silver prints! Swing by the show if you can, this is a wonderful art center with a real live darkroom and learning center, plus great galleries.  See you on November 2nd!

I am pleased to announce that my image “Kelp and Fish over Sandscape” is a finalist at the International Fine Art Photography Competition in the landscape/seascape/nature category.  The contest, also known as the Grand Prix de la Decouverte, will display the image at the Paris Salon de la Photo in November this year.  After the exhibition, the print will be added to the collection at the Bibliotheque Nationale de France. I am honored to be a part of this collection and will attend the opening of the exhibition!  Click the image below to learn more about this wonderful competition for emerging photographers.

 

The image “Sandscape and Baitfish” was just awarded a prize in the 2013 International Fine Art Photography Competition.  This competition is also known as the Grand Prix de la Decouverte, for the emerging photographer.  I’m happy to share the landscape/seascape/nature category with talented international artists.  Link to the contest website by clicking the image below.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The OIC Moments Blog features stories and images which are unique, fun and mind blowing.  “From the everyday to the truly spectacular, OIC (say “Oh, I see!”) moments are everywhere.”  Meredith Mullins blogs about looking at underwater images in a new way:

“These images showed me that an OIC Moment can come again and again. Something familiar, something seen before can always be seen in a new light, with new eyes. Viewing mysterious underwater images that capture the vastness of our planet can be a powerful creative inspiration.”

Along with my underwater images, she features images from Scott Campbell, a champion free-diver who shared walls with me here in Carmel at the Center for Photographic Art “Deeper” show.
