I've re-posted this image because it just got a nice little shout-out from the folks at Lenbaby.
Lensbaby had a contest and asked for submissions that might be included in a book the company is producing. This photo of mine was given an Honorable Mention and included in their online gallery, which you can check out over here. There is some really stunning work there, so check it you.
It is easier and cheaper for photographers to have their works showcased on the internet nowadays. But nothing can beat the beauty of a large print in terms of photographic display.
It is extremely extremely hard to get published (in the form of books) or to display the works in art gallery, museum or exhibition unless you possess most of the following qualities.
- Money (if you choose to self publish or paying all the costs of an exhibition)
- Hard work (I admire the work of editor and gallery curator!)
- Great artistic talent
- Great portfolio of works
- Good fame and reputation
- Good socializing skills and networking in the arts circles
I don't have any of these. However I am lucky to be participating in the Richmond City Street Banner program and now I have two pictures displayed as banners on the streets.
This is like an open air gallery display to me. Thanks to to the tip from my Flickr friend Clayton. I found my banner hanged up in the section of Minoru Boulevard between Alderbridge Way and Westminster Highway.
Please come by and take a look if you live in Vancouver area.
I took a picture of it for my own.
Happy weekend!

Suite d’une série de photos de vitrines au magasin D’Aoust G & Cie, vitrines qui seront toujours dans une classe à part.
En fait, j'ai pensé à appeler cette image: photo de la bedaine. J'ai fait cet autoportrait, l'appareil pendu sur le ventre, retardateur à 2 secondes de délais.
Et j'ai eu une excellente nouvelle pour partir la fin de semaine, une de mes photos a reçu une mention honorable dans un concour organizé par le fabricant de lentille Lensbaby, un produit que j'affectionne beaucoup.
Devinez la quelle. Honorable Mention Gallery : -)

============================
Follow up on a series of reflections in a display, at D’Aoust G & Cie store in Saint-Anne-de-Bellevue, "vitrines" that will always be in a class apart...
I thought of calling this image; "The belly controlled pic" . Did the shot with the camera hanging on my stomach with a 2 second timer delay.
I have received an excellent news today, one of my pictures received an honorable mention in a "Get published" contest from the makers of the Lensbaby lens systems.
Guess which one! Honorable Mention Gallery : -)
