And to think that we were worried about not having enough entries! On the contrary, we had so many terrific entries that choosing just three as the winners was incredibly difficult. After extensive deliberations, the judges chose Kathy Bossong’s, Summer on Bonner, as the overall winner, with Jennifer Cunningham’s,14 Johnson Street, taking second place and Amy and Joby Miller’s,112 Alberta Street, finishing in third.
Thank you again to our prize sponsors, Custom Frame Services and Morgan Howard, and to everyone who entered the contest. We’re hoping to do it again next year, so start thinking about photo ops now!
