2018 Photo Contest Judges Last Theme

The Paradise Area Tourism Council will be judging its last theme entry for the 2018 season.  The theme for December 2018 is Experience Fall Colors in Paradise!  "Selecting an autumn theme at the end of the autumn season, seems to usher in the winter season just a little more gently", says Photo Contest organizer, Nikki Craig.  "The Fall Colors midst the state and national forest grounds are spectacular. Soon enough the hills will be blanketed thickly with white snow.  Keeping the theme Fall Colors in Paradise, just permits those shadows to linger just a little longer."

This is the second year of the Paradise Area Tourism Council's photo contest and given the growth over the first year, the council decided to offer a contest again in 2019. Getting the photo lens perspective of other residents and visitors to the area augments the publicity of both printed and online mediums in sharing the excitement of Experiencing Michigan's Paradise.

The December entries are listed below.  The judges will have a tough time selecting the "one" image that goes to the final round and a chance to win $100.00.  See the next article for the finalists of 2018.  In the meantime, review these entries and let us know which is your favorite!
