Opening Night for Contemporary Photography in Hawaii 2018

Pacific New Media has been holding its annual Contemporary Photography in Hawaii exhibition for the last 10 years. It's certainly the best exhibit in Hawaii that's solely dedicated to photography. This year there were over 300 entries and 45 were chosen. One of my five photos was included, the second time in three years I've had something in the show. Funny though, I thought it was my weakest entry. The opening reception was August 3 at Marks Garage in Chinatown and the show will be up through August 31. For more information about location and hours of the exhibit, see the previous blog. You can also see a slideshow of all 45 entries at this address: https://pnmlab.com/2018/08/08/contemporary-photography-in-hawaii-2018-gallery/   I helped to install the exhibit which gave me an opportunity to meet some of the photographers and that's been the best part of this whole thing. I was especially glad to meet James Knudsen whose work I was just introduced to and which I like alot.
