Tami Mohs, of Mohs Photography in Columbus, recently was named a gold medalist during the Professional Photographers of America’s 2018 International Photographic Competition.
Her work will be on display next year at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, from Jan. 20-22. The International Photographic Exhibit is held in conjunction with Imaging USA, an annual convention and expo for professional photographers, according to a news release.
A panel of 32 jurors from across the United States selected the top photographs from nearly 5,073 total submitted entries at Gwinnett Technical College in Georgia. Of those, 2,622 images were selected for the General Collection and 513 were selected for the Loan Collection — a best of the best, the news release said.

The level of the award bestowed to photographers is determined by how many of their four images receive the highest possible honor: acceptance into the PPA Loan Collection, which is displayed at photographic exhibitions, conventions and other photography events.
Mohs was named a gold medalist, meaning that two of her four merited images entered the PPA Loan Collection. She was one of 60 gold medalists.
