Palo Alto Weekly Photo Contest Winners
Picture
perfect
171 people took their best shots in hopes of winning
a spot in our annual photo contest
Photographer
Ansel Adams once said that "You don't take a photograph,
you make it."
That's exactly what the 20 winners of this
year's Palo Alto Weekly Photo Contest did. Some waited for
the perfect moment to capture their image, others with a keen
eye
were in the right place to snap an amazing moment. From the
snowy, romantic streets of New York to the futuristic gotcha-shot
snapped
at the MOMA, this year's entries are as beautiful as they are
thoughtfully composed.
This year's judges include Norbert von
der Groeben, the Weekly's chief photographer; Dave Hibbard,
a fine art photographer; Joe Quever, a commercial photographer;
and Brigitte Carnochan, a fine art and documentary style photographer.
Our sponsors include: Photo Express, University Art, Palo Alto
Art Center, UCSC Extension. The photos displayed in this issue
will be on view from June 1 to June 15 at the Palo Alto Art
Center.
