Justin Chen
Courier Photo


By Laurel Brodzinsky, Courier Staff Writer

Justin Chen, senior at James Logan, recently won second place in the black and white category in the UC photo competition.

He first got interested in photography when his family got their first camera, and he started playing around with the camera and settings, and finding out “photography is actually an art form”. He is in the Photography class, as well as Photo Club. Though partly due to scheduling issues, Chen took Photography to learn more about and develop his interest in photography, at higher levels than point and shoot snapshots with a cheap digital camera.

From wikipedia:
Robert Nesta Marley, February 6, 1945 – May 11, 1981) was a Jamaican singer, songwriter, and guitarist. He is the most widely known performer of reggae music, and is famous for popularising the genre outside Jamaica. A faithful Rastafari, Marley is regarded by many as a prophet of the religion.

Marley is best known for his ska, rocksteady, and reggae songs, which include the hits "I Shot the Sheriff", "No Woman, No Cry", "Three Little Birds", "Exodus", "Could You Be Loved", "Jamming", "Redemption Song", and one of his most famous love songs, "One Love". His posthumous compilation album Legend (1984) is the best-selling reggae album ever, with sales of more than 12 million copies.
