provider(s). All certified Lifeline participants must complete and return annual re-
certification forms to continue Lifeline benefits.

tional benefits through the Link-Up telephone-installation program.

tance programs may qualify for Lifeline financial assistance:

'lines may also qualify.

Toni Johnson of Johnson Photography is honored by peers and jurors
for high-quality photography.
Three photographs created by Toni Johnson of Johnson Photographyin Norwalk
have recently been accepted into the LOAN Collection of Professional Photogra-
phers of America's 2013 International Photographic Competition. One other photo-
graph created by Johnson was selected into the General Collection. Johnson's work
will be on display at the Phoenix Convention Center, January 12-14, 2014, in Phoe-
nix, AZ. This International Photographic Exhibition is held in conjunction with Im-
aging USA, an annual convention and expo for professional photographers and sev-
eral photographic associations.
A panel of 43 eminent jurors from across the United States selected the top photo-
graphs from nearly 5,000 total submitted entries at Gwinnett Technical College in
Georgia. Judged against a standard of excellence, just over 1,800 images were se-
lected for the General Collection and just 682 (about seven percent) were selected for
the esteemed Loan Collection-- the best of the besL The• Loan Collection images will
all be published in the much-anticipated "Loan Collection" book and over 200 se-
lected General Collection images will be published in the "Showcase" book by Mara-
thon Press.
By having four out of four images accepted for the exhibit with three in the loan
collection, Johnson was named a Platinum Photographer of the Year. Johnson's En-
tries- "Emerald City'(a scenic print taken in Scotland), "Forever Yours" ( a child's
portrait of Evie Woods -daughter of Kelli and Josh Woods) and "On Looking Glass
Pond" (a baby swan taken at Blank Park Zoo in Des Moines) were the loan prints.
Johnson's General Collection image was another child portrait titled "On the Good
Ship Lollipop." All four images will be in the International Photographic Exhibition
alongside other top photographic works from the competition and traveling and
special invitational displays. These images constitute one of the world's largest an-
nual exhibits of professional photography gathered simultaneously under one roof.

book. Johnson Photography is located at 1035 Sunset Dr. in Norwalk.
