Photographer Rodney Rascona has been named Winner of Lucie Awards’ 2010 Photographer of the Year: Deeper Perspective.

Rodney writes…
“The images known as “The Pink Door Photographs”, a series of iconic portraits created in Haiti weeks after the earthquake…was recognized, nominated for and won, a LUCIE at the 2010 LUCIE Awards ceremony at the Lincoln Center in New York at the end of October out of a pool of some 15,000 submissions from 106 countries. I was one of three photographers from it’s sister organization, The International Photography Awards (IPA) to be nominated to take home a LUCIE statuette that night. To be honored that the evening by my peers and to have been recognized in a room full of some of the industry’s best image makers won’t soon be forgotten.”
