Congratulations Jon. Lucky enough to own one of Jon's prints, and can say it is a well deserved honor, Thanks to Ilford for seeing great work.

 

[Jon Shiu]

Thanks, guys! It was kind of a fun thing to enter and the prize money will come in handy since I just bought $500 worth of MGIV. Might splurge on a new Holga.

ps Frish Brandt, Director of the Fraenkel Gallery in San Francisco, CA, judged the competition. I haven't been to this gallery yet, but hear it is pretty good.

Most hearty congratulations Jon. I look forward to seeing your print on the cover of the next batch of paper I buy.

Beautiful and congrats; Guess I'll have to trade the Hassy for some plastic.

Way to go Jon,
It's very cool to have your image on an Ilford box! Mine is on the MGIV Pearl 100 sheet 8X10 box so I do know what it's like. It was a big thrill for me as I'm sure it is for you too! Which boxes will it be on! Love your image, too. Simply stunning.

Wow, Jon that is indeed an awesome photo!! And also, congrats on the award, too. I certainly hope I can convey to some degree of atmosphere that your photo captures, in my B&W shots, in the fast-approaching semester of Photography I!!

 

[Thanasis]

Well done John! I can only imagine how great it's going feel when you see all those boxes with your photograph on them. Good on you.

Ilford makes great products AND has excellent judgement.
Congrats and Thanks to both of you!
