Dawn’s Early Light, by Brian W Knight.
My photo, By Dawn’s Early Light, won first place in the Sports category at last night’s Fotoweek DC Awards Gala. The photo shows the first wave of racers in the 2009 Nation’s Triathlon as they swim up the Potomac River past the Lincoln Memorial.
Limited edition prints are now available for purchase:
- Mini Wallets (set of 8), Edition of 300 sets, $10.00
- 10×12, Edition of 100 prints, $150
- 16×24, Edition of 25 prints, $300
- 20×30, Edition of 10 prints, $375
- 24×36, Edition of 10 prints, $450
Each image is printed on professional papers including Kodak Endura E-Surface and Ilford’s True B&W. Both feature 100 year archival value, and will stand the test of time. Your prints are going to look great for a long time.
For the next week my photo will hang at Fotoweek Central located in Georgetown starting tonight through November 14, 2009.

The first email I read Monday night while still on the plane from Ottawa was from FotoWeek DC and began as follows…
Congratulations! We are pleased to inform you that you are a finalist in the FotoWeek DC Awards Competition. This means that your image will be exhibited in one of our FotoWeek galleries in Georgetown throughout the length of FotoWeek DC and you might be the first prize winner in the category you entered. You are also invited to the Awards Ceremony and Reception to be held at the National Geographic Society on November 5, 2009 where the winners will be announced and prizes will be awarded.
What a great birthday present, eh?! I’m very excited to be selected as a finalist and can’t wait for the gala held at Nat Geo in November.
Some more info about the competition…
FotoWeek DC Awards Competition Exhibition
This exhibition of the finalists from the 2009 Awards competition recognizes and honors extraordinary work in photography. Entries from sixteen states and twenty-eight foreign countries were made in several categories, including Fine Art, News/Feature Reporting, Advertising, Travel, and Sports. A multimedia category was added this year, too — work that may combine still photography with sound, graphics or video. A distinguished panel of judges, both from the U. S. and abroad, has carefully selected our finalists who will be recognized with Awards of Excellence, Distinction, and Merit — the top three entries in each category for a total of $21,500 in cash prizes. The winner of the “Spirit of Washington,” a single image that captures the essence of our capitol city, will receive the $5,000 Podesta Prize.
