Obects Of Desire
Wednesday October 5th, 2011
PDN has just announced the winners of their Objects of Desire photography contest. Their newest competition set out to highlight the best professional photographs of, you guessed it, desired objects. Our very own director of photography, Sean Stone, got in on the judging action along with Kelly Penford, director of the photography division at Jed Root Inc, and Jason Hall, art buyer at Fallon Worldwide. Together, the three chose the top object shots including photos of “cherished items and individuals.” We’re pleased to announce three Wonderful Machine winners, who were, coincidentally, all chosen winners in the Food and Still Life category:
First Place: Steve Buchanan/Baltimore
This is an image I use for self-promotion and as a portfolio piece.
Lauryn Ishak/Singapore
This is a photograph of Nyonya Platter served at the Bon Ton Resort in Malaysia. The platter is a combination of Malay and Chinese cuisines: Prawns, fish tamarind, beef with peanuts, chicken with lime leaf, pickled lamb curry, lady’s finger sambar, pineapple, eggplant in coconut curry and mango and cashew nut rice are all served on a banana leaf.
Lincoln Barbour/Portland
At Fuller’s Restaurant in Portland, Oregon, four strips of bacon sizzle on the flat top grill. This image was shot for a Portland Monthly feature on the best breakfast in Portland and art directed by Michael Novak.
Congratulations to all the winners!
