## Caption

A sign reflected in a poster of J. R. Ewing in the museum at Southfork ranch, Dallas. By gettyreportage photographer Peter Dench (denchphoto).
This image, from Peter's essay "Dench Does Dallas," was presented at this week's 28th Visa Pour l’Image photojournalism festival. The annual festival, held in the town of Perpignan, in Southern France, brings together photographers, editors, and other photography enthusiasts to celebrate today's best photojournalism.
"It's a privilege to be selected for a screening at Visa. From thousands of submissions they select but a few dozen photographers whose work they present. For three minutes, you have two thousand pairs of eyes on your work: a captive audience of photographic experts and industry influencers from around the globe."
In the summer 2015, Peter was unleashed to photograph the iconic city of Dallas, Texas. Dench’s journey took him across the vast urban landscape capturing the color and characters he met along the way. His forensic eye reveals a place far removed from the fantasies of film and television, a contrasting metroplex of baseball caps and cowboy hats, horsepower and horses. His photos are a saturated slap about the senses, a sideways glance at a fully loaded, remarkable American territory. #visapourlimage #visapourlimage2016
