1st Place Winner – Dave Dilli Dave’s photographic journey began when he saw the magic of a photograph emerge from a darkroom print while he was a photographer in high school. Since then he has experimented with his photographic style, which has evolved to a unique perspective on the beauty of the American Southwest. Dave strives to capture the essence of what he felt when the image was taken – from the softness of a sunset to the drama of a desert monsoon storm. Based out of Phoenix Arizona, Dave captures sunsets and sunrises from across the state of Arizona, Utah, eastern California and New Mexico. Dave has a number of photographic recognitions and awards, most recently including showings at Raw Natural Artists exhibit in Phoenix Arizona, exhibits at the GBK (Golden Globes Gift Lounge) and at Sky Harbor Airport in Phoenix Arizona, and a showing on the set of CBS series Criminal Minds.
