“Chimney Swifts” wins Cape Fear New Music Festival Competition

Cape Fear Eastern Music Festival
Cape Fear New Music Festival

Our image “Chimney Swifts” won the Cape Fear New Music Festival competition at Methodist University where the photographer was challenged to produce select great images which matched musical movements composed by the festival’s guest artists.  This year’s festival, now in it’s second year, was to focus on the interaction between the visual arts and music.   Burk Uzzle, a Life Magazine and Magnum photographer and native of North Carolina judged the entries.  Two other of our images, “Birding at Bonner Bridge” and “Overloaded Circuits”, were runner-ups in the competition.  I am pleased to say that the grand prize award went to Bryce Lankard, a mentor and instructor friend of mine at the Center for Documentary Studies at Duke University.  Way to go, Bryce!
