DART's Picture Contest Winners

By Peggy Roalf   Friday January 8, 2010

As promised, today the winners of DART's holiday picture contest are revealed. The response was great considering how many subscribers were away for the holidays.

The first two participants to identify 3 out of 9 [well, 8 to be fair] images from the archive will receive a swell arty gift. And they are: Author and curator Vince Aletti, and photographer Ofer Wolberger. The prizes are - you guessed it - photography books! Congratulations, and thanks to all who entered. The answers are included below.
