Decision Summary
The appeal was summarily dismissed because the petitioner failed to specifically address the reasons for the denial or identify any erroneous conclusion of law or statement of fact. The director had found that the submitted published material was about the petitioner's work as a hiker/explorer rather than as a photographer, and the appeal did not contest this finding.
