National Geographic Benelux - Nomination
Picture: Carola van Herk
Yesterday evening I went to National Geographic Benelux Photo competition 2009 event. With more than 27.000 entries a picture from my ‘Deep Soweto” series was nominated together with 6 others in the ‘human’ category. During the evening the winners were announced and Dutch wildlife photographer Ruben Smit talked about his work for the ‘Wild Wonders of Europe’ project. The winner was Andrew George, with a photo at the blue mosque in Instanbul.
Together with the other nominees my picture will be exhibited for 3 months at the Dutch tropical Institute in Amsterdam.

Way cool, esp. because the picture will be exhibited, here’s hoping that a lot of people see it and become curious, and perhaps something different will come out of it! Congrats :)
