“Selecting one finalist at the end of the year was challenging. Some of these photographers put in a great
deal of effort to get just the right shot,” explained Paradise Area Tourism
Council President, Jim Stabile. Entries
in the final round were submitted by photographers: Terry Humphrey, Eckerman,
Michigan, Jessica Scroggin, Seymour, Indiana, Suzy Drouse, Pinconning,
Michigan, Rachelle Drayton, Grand Rapids, Michigan, and Rob Brooks of Seymour,
Indiana. The 2017 finalist receives
recognition through the council’s website, social media, and a $100 Grand
Prize.
The council was so pleased with the quality of entries received in 2017 that they voted to conduct a similar contest in 2018. The 2018 schedule for category entries is listed in the following table.
