Excerpt taken from page 50 of PDN's December 2008 issue:

PDN PRESENTS THE WINNERS OF OUR FIRST FACES CONTEST

It's a straightforward concept that really took off: a contest on portraits of faces. And based on the overwhelming response we received, we stand by the old adage that "Less is more." The winning images that follow are divided into four categories of portraiture: celebrity/editorial, environmental, self-portraits and animals.[...] Surprisingly, the highest volume of entries fell into our animal portraits category. [...] We congratulate the winners of our first
PDN Faces contest, and we thank you for sharing and putting your best faces forward.

This contest was judged by the editors at PDN.






I was surprised to hear about being picked as one of the 16 winners in the category as I went about it quite nonchalantly thinking, "I have an animal portrait I really like. I'll give it a try."




As some of you know, I DO have a fondness for pigs
