Aspiring photography writers--I recommend this prize. Whether or not you win, it's a good way to make contact with Source. Many photography writers, myself included, have gotten a start writing reviews for this smart, readable, well-edited publication.

Still thinking about how much I enjoyed Dafna Talmor’s show The Moving Eye Cannot See at Sid Motion Gallery. The way she marks and slices the negatives to build her analog constructed landscapes creates wonderfully jazzy lines that make the compositions dance. Very pleasurable.
