The Man in the Window, by Keith Goldstein
Keith Goldstein was born in Brooklyn, New York, in 1957. Keith was interested in art for as long as he can remember, with his mother being his biggest influence and supporter, encouraging him in his earliest artistic endeavors. Keith’s first connection with photography came about in high school when he was given a collection of photography magazines to draw from. Instead of drawing from them, he began to read them, becoming extremely fascinated with the medium. It wasn’t until he dropped out of college after his second year, and was working in a warehouse, that he decided on photography as a means to creative expression. Keith’s photograph The Man in the Window awarded in the Photo of the Day Award in the category of Street Photography, as it scored a solid 69.5 (Value 13, Clarity 13, Composition 18, Style 13, Skill 12.5) from our international jury of 5.
