Your Photos on QUEST: and the winner is…
March 4th, 2008 by Craig RosaCongratulations to Flickr community member Erin Malone (erin_designr) of San Francisco, CA!
Windy Grass - by Erin MaloneErin will be collaborating with KQED staff on our 2 minute Your Photos on QUEST segment for broadcast and web distribution.
Her stunning set of Alviso Slough pinhole images wowed our KQED QUEST editorial staff. Her winning submission did a wonderful job of expressing a sense of locale, with a passion for nature, via a process that captures something unexpected and essential.
In her own words:
“…My process is primarily to make long exposures with pinhole and zoneplate rather than a glass lens. These long exposures made on Polaroid material force me to slow down and to appreciate the beauty around me. I make beautiful, impressionistic images in a place that many see as ugly. My hope is that these images change their mind about the hidden beauty here.”
This was a very difficult decision to make for us - we hope to do another YPOQ call in the near future. If you wish, you may leave your submissions open and we will consider them again in the next round. Sincere thanks to all who participated.
For those of you who are interested in entering the future, sign up for our email newsletter to get an announcement for the next submission call!
Craig Rosa is the Interactive Producer for KQED QUEST.
