Zara Pankau won first place in the 4-12 age group
Zara Pankau won first place in the 4-12 age group. “According to our judge, Zara’s photo did a wonderful job of illustrating how ‘small nature’ is part of a larger whole – her close up of the bee is a common composition with an added element of a larger natural background.”
ZARA PANKAU
Kristina Emerson won second place in the 4-12 age group
"According to our judge, Kristina’s photo is simple and effective – it can be hard to capture a bird, but Kristina did a wonderful job. The surrounding branches are also very visually appealing."
