Conceptual First Place:


Stephanie Graham   (Chicago, IL, USA) 
"Ghetto Fabulous Brandie"
"
Beauty to me is attitude. I look at some women walking with their heads high and just imagine them getting ready in the morning and saying to themselves "Great I look beautiful" and no matter what they are wearing, good or bad, makeup or no makeup, they just look beautiful. You just have to work it and that's beautiful."

Conceptual Second Place:

Wendy Gem  (Raleigh, NC, USA)

Rania Matar   (Brookline, MA, USA)

“Posters, Beirut Lebanon”

"These exhibits are a wonderful way to get acquainted with new work and a great opportunity to have your own work shown. I thought "beauty" was a great subject for a photographic contest. It can have so many interpretations. Photographers as visual people aim for "beauty," be it in the light, the composition, the subject or the dramatic."

Annabel Clark   (Brooklyn, NY, USA)
“In the Pool”
"When I heard about this exhibit, I was curious to see how far the term ?beauty? could be removed from its conventional representations in fashion magazines and on tv".

Juror: Alfonso Gutierrez - Editor/Managing Director, AGE Fotostock, Barcelona

Still Life First Place:

Wendy Farrow  
(Toronto, ON, Canada)

“Someone Else's Eyes”
"We seek beauty perhaps because the soul is nourished by it. Seeking physical beauty can lead to a false sense of self-worth, confining the mind and lessening our ability to find beauty in far more important forms. Its existence might be a ruse or a true source of spiritual contemplation. We rely on our wisdom to recognize its authenticity."
