Lung Liu - IPA Non-Professional Editorial Photographer of the Year
The Photographer’s Frazetta by Jhayne Holmes
My sincere congratulations go out to my friend Lung S. Liu for winning Non-Professional Editorial Photographer of the Year at the 2007 IPA’s. Lung’s medium-format film work of the Salton Sea and Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside swept the category.
I’m lucky enough to have not one, but two prints of his work at home. He very generously gave them to me as a birthday gift this past February and I really need to get around to hanging them. Or putting any photos up on my walls, for that matter.
Lung also took home three 1st place prizes in subcategories, one 2nd place, two 3rd places, and twenty honorable mentions. If you’d like to see his work, and a massive amount of inspiring work by other photographers, click on over to the 2007 IPA winners list.
You can see more of Lung’s work on his personal site or in his Flickr account.

Firstly, what a horrible picture you got in this blog post. Couldn’t you ask Lung to show one of his pictures?
Secondly, I looked through his Pictures at the IPA Awards site and they were amazing. I especially liked his portraits. Very powerful and expressive.
Thanks for the IPA site. Now I got some pictures to browse through @ WORK and be inspired by.

I could have asked Lung to use one of his photos, but I thought it was infinitely more hilarious to post a less-technically-stellar photo of Lung himself, being fawned over by ladies.
