Vandaag een e-mail ontvangen van de organisatie van The Fifth Annual Exposure Photography Award, met daarin het officiële bewijs dat een foto is geëxposeerd in Musée du Louvre in Parijs.

Dear Tjeerd Doosje,

We were thrilled to include your work in the digital display at the Louvre on July 13th as part of the Portraiture Collection. It was magnificent to see work from photographers representing over 191 different countries displayed together at the most esteemed museum in the world. Thank you for being a part of it!

We are excited to announce that the books featuring select Exposure Award Collections are almost ready! Below, you will find a sneak preview of the Portraiture Collection book (this preview is just for you)!

The hard cover printed version will be available soon! We are spending the next few days putting the finishing touches on the book and we will be sending them to the printer later this week.

Below you will find your official letter of recognition for participation in the Exposure Award and the digital display at the Louvre.

It’s an honor to have your work included in this year’s event and in the books to come. Net proceeds from the sales of the books will benefit our charity partner, Pencils of Promise, working to build schools in developing nations.

Ik ben uitermate trots op dit certificaat!
Het doet me ook goed dat een deel van de opbrengst van de fotoboeken naar een organisatie gaat die het onderwijs in (arme) landen op poten wil zetten of zoals Pencils of Promise het zelf omschrijft:

We believe every child should have access to quality education. We create schools, programs and global communities around the common goal of education for all.
