’Pong’s photo “Direction” (pictured), taken at Earthdance in Sydney last year, has been selected by leading photographer David Allen Harvey — who we had the great pleasure of meeting in Bangkok last year — for his Emerging Photographers Fund slideshow. Congratulations.

(It’s a stupid Flash-driven thing, so I can’t even link to the specific slideshow. You’ll have to follow the generic link, then select “Emerging Photographers Fund”, then select “Singles I”, then scroll through to image 31 of 32.)

’Pong doesn’t think it’s the best of his photos from Earthdance. It’s interesting to see people’s different choices.

I used to stir ’Pong because he never had people in his photographs. So I was amazed to see this image from Earthdance the other weekend. He was lifted bodily above the mosh pit by eager partiers — just check their faces! ’Pong took plenty of other photos, before sunset and after dusk, all of them well worth consideration.
