A big thank you to all who participated in the recent Trees for Suffield photo contest and the show at the Kent Memorial Library Pinney Gallery. It was such a resounding success that we’re planning a new photo contest.
Several of the photos from the show are featured below. There were four categories: Tree Portrait, Abstract, Landscape and Close-Up. There were both adult and youth categories as well. Eighty-nine photos were submitted by talented photographers from age 3-95!
