photography.
Half Moon Bay, CA –
August 25, 2012 --- Photographs created by Diane of Diane K. Costello
Photography in Half Moon Bay, CA has recently been accepted into the General
Collection of Professional Photographers of America’s 2012 International
Photographic Competition. Costello’s
work will be on display at the Georgia World Congress Center, January 20-22,
2013 in Atlanta, GA. This International
Photographic Exhibition is held in conjunction with Imaging USA, an annual
convention and expo for professional photographers and several photographic
associations.
A panel of 43 eminent
jurors from across the United States selected the top photographs from nearly
5,000 total submitted entries at Gwinnett Technical College in George. Judged against a standard of excellence, just
over 1,800 images were selected for the General Collection and just 476 (about
10 percent) were selected for the esteemed Loan Collection – the best of the
best. The Loan Collection images will
all be published in the much-anticipated “Loan Collection” book, and over 200
selected General Collection images will be published in the “Showcase” book by
Marathon Press.
Titled “Dinner is
Served”, “Bah-Hum-Bug” and “Ya’ Wanna Play?”, Costello’s photographs
will be in the International Photographic Exhibition alongside other top
photographic works from the competition and traveling and special invitational
displays. These images constitute one of
the world’s largest annual exhibits of professional photography gathered
simultaneously under one roof.
