The PDN Photo Annual 2008 Awards have been announced and are now perusable online; there's an extensive cache of imagery, including awards for the following categories: advertising, magazine/editorial, photo books, photojournalism/sports/documentary, corporate design/photo products, personal work, stock photography, websites and student work.
There's also a fete tonight for the winners at Capitale, and I've got my dancing shoes on, 'cause I'm going! I hope there will be cheese. I'll be sure to report back, like Daryl did for the Infinity Awards.
The winners in the magazine/editorial category include some of my favorites from the year, which feels satisfying. My top five:
