Smith's Funeral Homes Celebrates 75 Years of Business in Burlington, Ontario


To celebrate this occasion, Smith's has created a three-way competition - best essay, and photograph that reflects the past, and a multi-media category that forecasts the future. Entires have been coming in since May, 2013.  More general information here.


I am thrilled and delighted to announce that my pinhole photo entry, 'Granny's Lounger',  has been selected as a finalist. The awards ceremony will take place at the Burlington Performing Arts Centre on September 12th from 5-7pm. See you there! 

 

 Recent press in Burlington Post ... 

  Update: WOOHOO! - Got '3rd Prize' for my pinhole image.  And a VERY NICE cheque.    Judges' Remarks:  "The photographer describes the pinhole photograph as 'slow photography' and I would also add 'timeless photography'. The capture is a wonderful work of art. Its imagery is what makes it an award winner; I believe that it embodies the spirit of what Burlington life is all about."
