Rolando Gomez Sources

Thanks to those that showed support for helping undelete the Rolando Gomez article. Here is a link, that includes internal and external source links that will hopefully help those wanting to edit the article: [1] Of note, the "Robinson, Carol (March 31, 2006). "Hometown folks fret over Attalla teen’s centerfold", The Birmingham News, pp. 1. Retrieved on 15 December 2008." is the article that quotes Playboy Playmate Holley Dorrough in stating Rolando Gomez discovered her as a playmate. "Jaime, Kristian (January 13, 2008). "Going digital with Rolando Gomez". La Prensa 20 (25): 8B. Retrieved on 15 December 2008." is an article on Gomez's career and accomplishments as a photographer. On Lexar Elite Photographers, Lexar chooses each year 30 photographers that they feel deserve that honor. This is a "non-compensated" honor, there is no requirement for the photographer to promote their products or company. The link to D-Pixx, it was not a cover photo only, it was a 9-page article on Gomez's photography and success plus a 4-page (13-pages total), separate article on his workshops in the Virgin Islands. Again, no compensation or promotion required. The "Rangefinder" (Sept. 06') was a cover story, not just a cover shot. The photo was not shot for Rangefinder, it was used by them to illustrate their featured photographer of the month plus the topic, "Lighting." The links to Photo District News were press releases on his 7-city, 3-country tour in Europe completed in Sept. 2007. The article "War Stories" [2] published in Studio Photography was written by the magazine editor at the time, Alice Miller [3], currently the vice president and board member of the International Photographic Council. On Gomez's selection by the Department of Defense as one of the Top Five military photographers world-wide, it was for the 55th Signal, Combat Camera annual workshop where the top 25 photographers, from all branches, spend a week with noted civilian photographers which that year included James Nachtwey, Mary Lou Foy, Bernie Boston and others. At the end of the week they choose the "Top Five." This is not to be confused with the "Military Photographer of the Year" (Bali ultimate cites in the talk page) competition were portfolios are submitted, via mail and judged (only), a total separate program. Several articles site Gomez's DOD Top Five accomplishment and are sourced including the one written by Miller. Finally, this press release, PhotoImaging & Design Expo 2005 Brings in the Top Guns "[4] lists Gomez in the 3rd paragraph with other Wiki notable photographers. Just FYI, thanks for your fairness. --72.191.15.133 (talk) 06:32, 17 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
