my submissions to 2008 Black and White Spider Awards Photo Gallery by Patricia Lay-Dorsey at pbase.com

my submissions to 2008 Black and White Spider Awards

I am so grateful to the PBase community for helping me decide which photos to submit to the 2008 Black and White Spider Awards competition. In the end, I followed expressive photographer Phil Douglis' advice and chose photos that best said what I wanted to say. I see each as telling a story, one that will be heard differently by each viewer according to his or her life experiences. That is what I now realize is my goal as a photographer: to be a visual storyteller.

Under each image is its title and, in the text you can find the category in which I placed it.

Body Art	Downtown Detroit	DeShaun and Neil
Mommy 's pregnant!	Breakfast Still Life	Reflecting on Orchids
Alone in the City	Ed's Piano	My Art Studio Awaits
A Hot Day in Detroit	Music For the Eyes	Surgical Waiting Room
Remembering the Fallen	Motion and Stillness	Her Third Eye
Duality #1	Duality #2	Duality #3
Duality #4	Duality #5

Patricia: I think these are an excellent cross section of high class images. You have already won, in my view, and the Jury decision is only secondary. You have stood up, and been counted. I applaud you. Best wishes. Colin
