68th College Photographer of the Year competition

This past October I entered my portfolio, two multimedia videos, 1 multiple picture story and a handful of single shots in the 68th College Photographer of the Year competition.  It's an international competition for work completed by students in 2012.  This years competition had 18 categories with over 600 student participants from over 19 countries.

And my spot news photo was selected for an award of excellence.

But above and beyond that the recognition is even sweeter when you get to represent an awesome program like Photojournalism at Loyalist College. :D
