Int'l Photography Awards 2009

A couple of my entries have completed the first three rounds of judging in the International Photography Awards 2009 and now have been named OFFICIAL SELECTIONS. They include the single image "Vegas Couch" and the reproduced food image series "Delicious" (three sample images below).




Delicious statement: An image series of commercially created and idealistically presented foods and dishes, passed through the filter of time, age, distance, weather and photographic reproduction into new serving suggestions.

New York Photo Awards 2009 Nomination

Well, I am honored to find out (months after the fact) I had made it into the NOMINATION stage of the 2009 New York Photo Festival Awards with my photo book American Tour. The book is still available for free download BTW on my site here.

(I often wonder what would have happened had the Comfort Motel NOT been torn down...)

NYPHA'09 Nominations
The Jury of the New York Photo Awards 2009 (NYPHA'09) is pleased to announce the following Nominees.

To be named a nominee of the New York Photo Awards 2009 means that one has been selected for the final round of judging, during which time only three finalists will be chosen (Winner and two Honorable Mentions). Considering the number of rounds that the Jury has already been through, being nominated is truly an award in and of itself. We are very proud of this year's Nominees. It is clear that they represent the Future of Contemporary Photography, and we wish them continued success.

The Winners and Honorable Mentions will be announced (and their work presented) at the Gala Ceremony for the New York Photo Awards 2009 on Friday, May 15th at 8pm in the St. Ann's Warehouse Auditorium. This is a special ticketed event, there are only 415 seats, and they are selling out fast. Last year, we packed the place to the gills, and still had another 200+ people flowing out to the streets. So, if you want a seat, you have to have a ticket. Festival passes and tickets can be purchased here.

Good Things Come In Threes...

Three sides that is. From last May at Meteor Crater in AZ. One of those shots that's just plain lucky.

Germany vs. Spain 2008

A bit of "hotel reportage" from Hamburg 29.06.2008, now posted as a PDF download on my site: http://www.mvlimbert.com/GermSpainCOV.html. The agony of defeat from EURO 2008 Football Championship Finals.

Greetings from the Season

You'd think I'd forget you? This time of year? We've known each other longer than that. Well, here you go. A little something. Something I found. Merry Christmas.

Ice Palace

Turn off the waterworks baby, they don't move me no more. Especially when they are frozen. Almost. Did get most of the salt off the car despite the l'il penguin ice cubes coming out the end of the sprayer.

Palms In Paradise

The last time I was on the coast I contracted walking pneumonia and had to sweat it out on a 5 hour flight back to bed. This was the last thing I remember...

Skagit River Hikeathon

Back from a week of living with the rocks in the Cascade Mountain Range in Washington. From Mt. Rainier to Ross Lake (Ross Lake Resort) and the dams (Diablo, Gorge, and Ross) of the Skagit River Hydroelectric Project. Hiked and ate. Kept the fire burning every 2 hours in the cast iron Alaskan. Many images of mountains I won't post here.


And I have to say I'm ALL for the National Parks of the US. And the Great Lodges. Yes, I possess an annual pass. When I leave the community confines of the park I can't help but feel like I'm leaving home, into the unsanctioned unofficial world of back-to-school letdown.
