I am excited to announce that two of my nature images received honors in the 2018-19 TREES Inc. “Shades of Winter” Photography Contest in Terre Haute, Indiana.

“Sycamore Frost” received First Place in the Professional Division, and “Sycamore Freeze” was awarded an Honorable Mention.
Both leaves are from the Sycamore tree in my front yard in Clay County, Indiana. I used my cellphone to capture the images on the fly.
For the contest, I had each image processed as a competition print and mounted on foam core.
The exhibit of winning photographs went on display Feb. 11 in the Vigo County Public Library at Terre Haute and can be viewed through Feb. 28.
Congratulations on your wins. Your photography is beautiful. I’m a former Hoosier from Brazil, so Terre Haute is one of my former stomping grounds.
Thanks so much! Tell me more about yourself.
Hi, Shelia. I’m an RN who worked the ER at Terre Haute Regional before moving to Florida. I worked many different specialties throughout my career, but I most enjoyed my ten years as a cruise ship nurse. I’m now retired and enjoying several pastimes including reading and reviewing many books. I think i’m probably quite a few years older than you. i graduated from Brazil High, and then from ISU for my nursing degree. Where do you live in Clay County?
