Winning Photo:  "Bait"

February 4, 2005.  Fourteenth Street, Union Square, NY.  Here the primitive meets the elegant, the timeless and speed driven cross paths.  New York City, with its brokenness and ever changing landscape of intersecting lives both anonymous and poignant.

Accompanying Photo: "Cradle"

November 18, 2007.  Asher Elbers, the photographer’s grandson, one month old, lying in the hand hewn cradle that also held his mother decades earlier.
