2008-2009 Photograph of the Year Winning Entries

On Wednesday, May 6, 2009 the Photography Club of Lower Fairfield County held it’s Photograph of the Year Competition.  Members were asked to submit two images in each category (B&W Print, Color Print and Digital Image), from images they have submitted into competition during the 2008-2009 season, to represent the Club as the best images of 2008-2009. 

Our all star panel of judges for this competition were Bill Howe, John F. Hill and Lee Paine.   The judges critiques were absolutely fantastic, and they came to the tough decision of selecting a single image in each category to be the photograph of the year.
