WINNERS OF WORN

WORN was a challenging theme for both our photographers and those voting on the 40 pictures submitted for this event. We had one clear winner for first place, a tie for second and five honorable mentions. One of our second place winners was also chosen Best of Theme and her photo is displayed under that heading.

BEST OF THEME

Our winners except for Best of Theme are chosen by the votes of our photographers. The photographer that wins first place in an event gets to pick the theme for a future event. In this case it was Nancie M who picked the theme WORN. She has the honor of picking Best of theme.

Nancie says: 'When I look at this photo I immediately ask "I wonder how many miles this man walked to wear out these shoe?" and "What stories would these worn shoes tell if they could talk?"'
