Roberto Falck Wins Five Accolades of Excellence in the 2009 Awards of Excellence 16x20 Print Competition
It was such a thrill to participate in the print and album competition at WPPI this year.
I was able to sit in the rooms where prints and albums where being judged and I can tell you what an educational experience it has been. The judges for all the categories are photographers considered as the best in the country (and some around the world) and it is such a learning experience to sit in the same room and hear what they have to say when they see a print or an album. Some rooms where more "talkative" than others, but in general it was interesting to hear what they had to say about participants work.
When my albums or prints were up my hands were sweating and my heart was pumping. It almost felt like the moment one feels just before defending a dissertation. On one hand I wanted to hear what the judges had to say but on the other I was scared to death!!
At the end I think I did pretty well for being the first time submitting to these two compentitions.
Bellow are the images that were recognized following by the press release by WPPI:
