HARMAN technology Limited is pleased to announce the winners of the ILFORD PHOTO DELTA 400 Image on a Box Competition

First prize of 1000 USD worth of ILFORD black and white photographic products goes to Welsh born Canadian photographer Graham Davies.

The competition was open to all residents of Canada and USA with entries shot on ILFORD DELTA 400 film and printed on ILFORD black and white paper. Judge Dennis Keeley from the Art Center College of Design in California selected the entry titled “Winter Road” as the overall winner. The winning image will also feature on one of the iconic ILFORD PHOTO black and white paper boxes.

July 2011 marks 50 years in professional photography for Graham Davies, starting as a photographer’s apprentice at age 15 in his native Wales. His career has encompassed industrial and theatrical photography and photojournalism from local newspapers to the national UK press, most recently freelance for The Daily Express in London. He emigrated to Canada in 1993 and now focuses on fine art film-based, hand-printed photography. He lives in Cherry Valley in the island community of Prince Edward County, Ontario where he has a gallery and studio. Graham has always used Ilford film, paper and chemicals exclusively for his personal and fine art work, and says he shoots digital “only when I have to.”

About the Image – Winter Road

Graham took this picture close to home, in typical Eastern Ontario winter conditions. “Driving home from town, I stopped the car and got out to feel the silence and the stillness. It was a good five minutes before another car went by. As a black and white photographer I loved winter in the countryside when I first arrived in Canada. I still do.”
