August GoldenEye Winner!

SECRET Wendover Airfield tour by Scott Sommerdorf

Judged by a famous photographer whose identity will remain anonymous. He wrote:

I looked over the lot and found plenty of worthy images. I’ve only been a photo contest judge a couple times and came to the conclusion that I’m just not qualified for the job. There are a handful of stand-outs but how do you decide?

I owe you a favor for your kindness so I’ll mow your lawn or make canapes for your next party but you’d be better off to find another judge.

However, I sure do circle back to the broken window/plane pic.

Next Photo Night – April 15th. Be There!

Sunday April 15th is our next Utah Photojournalism Photo Night. All are invited.

The goal for the night is Feedback. We’ll be projecting photographs (singles and projects) and those in the room will discuss the work.

All are invited to show their work— professionals, students, amateurs.

We want honest feedback to be provided so we won’t be announcing whose work we’re looking at and photographers will be discouraged from talking about or explaining their work while it is displayed.

Bring your work on a memory card, USB stick, whatever. Or you can e-mail it to us: utahphotojournalism@gmail.com

There will be two levels of feedback offered. Let us know what type you are looking for:

Go Easy On Me — Emphasize the positive and provide constructive criticism.
Brutally Honest — What doesn’t kill me will make me stronger.


Details:
Sunday, April 15th, 6:30pm.
Moran Eye Center at the University of Utah
65 Mario Capecchi Drive, SLC

Park underneath the building, take the elevator to the lobby. We’ll be in the auditorium straight in front of you.
