Must say a congratulations to Adam Dean who is another of the ex-Dalian crowd, and Liz Hingley and Kurt Tong who I met at last year’s Rhubarb International Review and are both doing fantastic work. Also there are two photographers I know from my Newport days in the Honourable Mentions, Stephen Kelly who is an incredibly talented award winning documentary photographer and likewise Dominic Hawgood who is an amazing portrait photographer who has previously shown work in the National Portrait Gallery. Interestingly there are quite a few names familiar from last year’s Fresh Faced and Wild Eyed show at the Photographer’s Gallery that I was involved in so congratulations to all of them.

The book of all the winners and honourable mentions is available now from Magenta at their website
