With a brilliant
understanding and knowledge of photography,
Nicodemo captures light in a moment. Each moment
unfolds incredible images, which portrays his
inner harmony and peace. He is known to
his many friends as "Nico."
Growing up in his native country of Italy, his
passion for photography began to develop at an
early age. By the age of 13, inspired and
encouraged by his art teacher, he passionately
pursued his artistic sojourn.
Shortly after moving
to America, he joined the Photographic Society
of America (PSA) where he has achieved 5 stars
recognition in both color slides and in nature.
He has achieved "Best of Show" in several
categories; Nature, Pictorial, Photo-journalism,
and Contemporary.
Nico is a Salon member
of the Morris Photo-color Camera Club Club of
Morristown. As a member of MPCC he competes in
PSA, Regional, National and International
competitions. Nicodemo is a multi-winner of the
"Mallas Trophy" for color slide pictorial and
the "Skibneski Trophy" for nature, which are top
awards for photography in the State of New
Jersey. Both these awards are sponsored annually
by the NJ Federation of Camera Clubs
In the new millennium Nico achieved "Best of
Show" in the "Ridgewood International Gold
Metal" competition.
He received a perfect
score, winning with 8 slides. This feat has been
achieved only by Nico and only one other
photographer in the history of this
international competition.
Nico has been a Judge
of International Salons for PSA, as well as for
competitions for Photographic Clubs, Art
Museums, and other organized competitions. He is
Lecturer and Instructor of photography and
photographic technique. Nico conducts annual
photo-expeditions and offers several
audio/visual slide programs, which includes
"Timing Images in a Frame, The Legendary
America," and "Quest Through Light."
Early in his career as
an engineer while working with Fairchild
Corporation in NYC, he ascertained vivid
projected imageries through a specially designed
screen known as "Front Projection." A milestone
creation that revolutionized the the news
broadcast and special effects industries. This
technology was instrumental in the making of the
motion picture "2001, A Space Odyssey."
Retired from Rutgers,
The State University Physics Department, he is
now devoted to teaching and traveling offering
special attention to individuals who wish to
join his artistic sojourn.
