Since the invention of the first roll–film camera in 1888 to the highly celebrated digital cameras of today’s age, the act of taking pictures has been both a pleasant pastime and a way of documenting the world and those who inhabit it.
We are sometimes shocked by the immediacy of an image, or soothed by memories preserved in a picture or provoked by a scene we don’t understand. Whatever our response, the picture taker is observing and documenting a Person, Place or Thing. It is up to us as the viewer to read the image and to let it percolate within; perhaps, allowing us to gain greater insight to what it is to be human and what it is to live in the world.
Our photographs are our treasures.
In 2019, awarded categories will include Best in Show, First, Second and Third place in the categories Person, Place, or Thing.
