Bert Pasquale wins Grand Imaging Award from PPA

Final Flight photo

Goddard Photo Club member Bert Pasquale (Code 551, Optics) received a Grand Imaging Award from the Professional Photographers Association in January 2013 at the Imaging USA convention in Atlanta. Selected from the 2012 International Image Competition's 5,000 entries, "Final Flight" of the STS-135 Space Shuttle Atlantis' launch received 3rd place in the Illustrative category. Bert is a member of the Maryland PPA chapter and credits years of PPA image competition critiques of his on-location environmental portraiture works to how he approached and treated his documenting of STS-135's final flight.
