Critical Mass Top 50: My Top Picks
There were over 200 people from varying backgrounds judging the second round of work submitted to Critical Mass this year so the picks were spread far and wide. I would like to add my opinions about some of the artist who did not make it to the top 50. Here is a list of my favorites:
These photographers made it in the top 50:
Simone Lueck
Phillip Toledano
(not in the top 50,... but fantastic!!)
Tony Chirinos (not on the top 50)
Susan Worsham (not on the top 50)
These photographers made it in the top 50:

New Mexico Photography Website and Call for Entry
copyright Scott B. DavisThe blog has not been very active for the month of October because I was working on a collaborative effort with four other New Mexico photographers--Jonathan Blaustein, Jesse Chehak, David Ondrik and Jennifer Schlesinger-- to form Flash Flood. Although my article was delayed, there is some great content on the site including:
