Update: The Photo Place Gallery Exhibit
Thought I’d provide an update on a a previous post, my submissions to The Photo Place Gallery Photo Noir competition.
The good news is that, after submitting five images, my Bitter Little Noir image was selected to be part of the 40-image online gallery.
The, well, I wouldn’t say bad news, maybe disappointing news,is that it wasn’t selected for the 35 print physically gallery showing in Vermont.
Don’t get me wrong, I was excited to the the congratulatory email. Of course, though, having a print hang in a gallery would have been exciting.
Judging from what I saw online, a lot of good work, on an international basis, was submitted and accepted for both the physical and online gallery. I’m sure the judging was difficult, so I am indeed honored to part of this.
But…and not trying to sound like sour grapes here….to me, there seems to be some head-scratching selections. Not that they were bad images, but not what I really consider to fit with the “noir” them. Maybe I’m just too much of a purist when it comes to noir.
Anyway, check out the selections over at The Photo Place Gallery website. Let me know your thoughts, and favorites, in the comments below.
