My Perspective: UK photography competition winner announced

David Cormack has been announced as the winner of this year's My Perspective photographic competition in the UK. Two runners-up and 10 highly commended entries were also announced.

From the DSA (UK) website:

"My Perspective is the only photography competition for people with Down's syndrome. The competition started last year as the natural follow-on from the hugely successful Shifting Perspectives exhibition. For the past seven years, the Down’s Syndrome Association (DSA) has been showcasing work from a fantastic collection of professional photographers who all have a personal link with Down's syndrome. In years gone by, people with Down's syndrome were photographed as exhibits, where the viewer was not supposed to see the person, just the difference. My Perspective turns the camera around and gives the subjects in front of the camera a chance to show the world from their point of view."

If you are planning to visit the UK over the next few weeks, you will have an opportunity to see the exhibition.
