Burtynsky Photo Book Grant Info
My submission was from the "Families of the Dump" project work. Hopefully they consider it, I wrote a personal maybe a bit passionate statement for them about the families,.myself and the need to make photographs. The grant is for $5000 to help get a book published. A long long long shot at best, only 40 million or so people are qualified to apply. :) Never hurts to try thou especially when your trying to tell a very important story.
Here is the cover of the purposed book.
