Student’s Photographs Selected for Pingyao International Photography Festival
Two of student Adam Dexter’s photos were selected, by jury, to show in the 2009 Pingyao International Photography Festival in Pingyao, China. The festival is China’s oldest and largest photography festival. Moment and Galaxy were two of the 100 images that were selected for the festival out of a total 450 entries. Moment was also one of 45 images chosen from over 800 entries in the 2009 DCist Exposed photography show hosted by the Flashpoint art gallery, earlier this year. Check out the full Hidden Galaxy series and other work at Adam Dexter’s Photography site.

Smashing Magazine is featuring one of my pictures.
One of my photos from Glen Echo Park in Maryland is on SmashingMagazine.com.
I submitted it to a contest of texture photos and it got chosen as one of the images for their texture gallery- Check it out here.

The split and chipping paint from an aged wooden door exposed to the elements gives way to the vibrant sedimentary colors of the natural wood it once covered. The resulting texture is contrasting and intricate.

This is a quick one- mini spread in today’s Eagle of Friday’s ATEC fest. Check it out- pictures online here-

So just a quick one: I got a call late last night for some last minute editorial shots for The Eagle. They needed shots of the Metro, so I found some from back when I went out shooting at Federal Triangle back in freshman year. They did fine and ran three of them, so it was sweet. Take a look here and here.

Some of my shots were featured in today’s edition of the Eagle. You can check them out here.

The lighting was terrible, only two cans at right with gels, at about 12feet, I couldn’t adjust them, I don’t know the exact colors of the gels, but they were a yellow and rose/pink. All the shots in the article are with no flash. All photos except for the first and last ones were shot with a f2.5 50mm, the others were a 70-200 at L/f4.

pftw: Here are my favorite ones from the assignment that were not published (click through for larger formats on my flickr).

[EDIT: After this spread ran as a full front page of “The Scene” section of the Eagle, I got an email from the business school who ended up hiring me for their yearly Case Competition]
