First Place, Honorable Mention in TREES Inc. Photography Contest

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.

TREES 2018-19 First Place award for “Sycamore Frost”

“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.
