2007 Photography Contest Winners

The entrants for the photo contest have been getting better year after year, and the photographs for this issue’s competition are no exception. Determining how photographs are narrowed down to the final judging process continues to be a long, gruelling process, since there are so many worthy images. We want to thank all people who entered the contest this year, for their love of trying to capture that perfect Finger Lakes photograph.
