PICTURE PERFECTION
WINNERS OF THE 2012 WILDFLOWER/TEXAS HIGHWAYS PHOTO CONTEST
This year witnessed our most talked about photography contest ever. Held in
partnership with Texas Highways – the travel magazine of Texas – our 2012
contest marked the first time that we invited the public to vote for winners.
And what a response! Nearly 13,000 votes were cast for 1,700 photographs on our
Facebook page and website. After public-vote winner Jane Barkow was announced in
June, our panel of six judges narrowed down the entries to 50 finalists. Then we
got together to advocate for our favorites in the People with Wildflowers, Black
and White, Botanical, Landscape and newcomer Wildlife in the Native Landscape
categories.
We agree with what Ansel Adams once said: "You don't take a photograph, you
make it."
