NATIONAL NEWSPAPER ASSOCIATION AWARDS & BREAKING NEWS
2016
2nd Place: Best Breaking News Photo, "Blue & Gold Fleet,"
Elliot Karlan
The Ark Newspaper Tiburon Ca.
Judges' comments: "Night shots can be tricky, and this is pulled off with style. Especially given the bright sparks; that's an exposure challenge. The wide angle puts the viewer right there. Beautiful."
This photo is from the emergency, night, repair to the ferry landing dock.

3rd place, Best Feature Photo, Non‐daily Division. "Just a drill"
Elliot Karlan
The Ark Newspaper Tiburon Ca 94920
Judges' Comments: "Tremendously dynamic photo. The hose looks to have been turned into a light saber. Hard to get this shot without your camera (and your face) melting.
Simply awesome."
This photo is inside a fire training trailer.
The fire fighters are wearing full, heat resistant protective gear. (I was in a T-Shirt)
(The editor selects a few pix at the end of each year and submits them to the Association… I am always very surprised when I learn of an award)
