NG 2nd Annual International Photo Contest

English-language- edition entries will be judged at National Geographic headquarters in Washington, D.C.

PDN Photography Annual 2007 Award Winners
Photo District News (PDN) has announced the winners of the PDN Photography Annual 2007;
“As PDN’s Photo Annual marks another year of extraordinary photography, we honor the contest winners who grace the following pages. From Lauren Greenfield’s heart-wrenching multimedia project, “Thin,” to Gary Schneider’s hauntlingly beautiful photo story about obesity, this year’s contest was a study in extremes. Whether it be apoignant social statement, such as Jan Grarup’s Newsweek documentation of the devastation in Darfur, or a perfectly nutty ad campaign like Lyndon Wade’s for Nestle Crunch, each image has its own identity, worthy of recognition.”

Congratulations to Michele Clement - USA (1st place - Outstanding Achievement), Adam Hinton - UK (2nd Place - Merit of Excellence), and Werner Branz - Austria (3rd Place - Honor of Distinction) as the Winners of the 2007 Black & White Spider Awards.
