Light Work would like to congratulate Peter Cihon of Skaneateles High School in Skaneateles, NY as the winner of the Light Work Award for Best Photography Portfolio in this year’s CNY Scholastic Art Awards.

About his work, Peter writes:

My two trips to Spain, to study Spanish language and culture, have inspired my portfolio. While university classes were informative, my ineractions with the Spanish people—through the lens or in everyday life—were truly inspirational. While photo-journalistic style is meant to capitvate the view, it should also teach him or her something about Spanish culture.
