Several Trumbull residents found the beauty in winter and have been named winners in the Conservation Commission’s photo contest for capturing it on camera.
The Trumbull Conservation Commission recently named winners and thanked residents who participated in its 2015 Winter Photo Contest. There were entries from 31 residents in three categories.
“We were pleasantly surprised at the response to the Winter Photo contest,” said Mary Ellen Lemay, chair of the Conservation Commission. “My colleagues and I believed we had seen it all in Trumbull, but we have to hand it to the photographers. They each have a great eye for the picturesque, which made even getting the submissions down to a short list difficult, and picking clear winners all but impossible.”
Lemay also said since these photographs are so impressive, the commission will be trying to get some of them displayed in town. The commission will also be considering future photo contests.
All submissions can be viewed on the Trumbull Conservation Commission’s Facebook page at facebook.com/TrumbullConservation. The top finishers in each of the three categories were:
