Twelve photographers entered the 2014 Chesapeake Chapter Photo Contest. The photos were displayed at the celebratory picnic where Chapter members voted for their favorites. While participation was a bit low (there wasn’t a lot of time for entries to be submitted), all the entries were very good and we appreciate those who participated. The categories for the 2014 competition were:
- For those 12 and under there was a drawing contest. Draw your favorite lighthouse.
- Black & White Photography
- Sunrise/Sunset
- Special Effects (do what ever manipulation you like)
- Abandoned Lights
And the winners were……
The first place for drawing goes to Serenity Love who entered a wonderful drawing of the Ft. Washington Light – a fitting entry given the picnic was held at Ft. Washington Park.
