The tribe has spoken! Our readers have spoken too, or rather voted. Thank you to all the avid photographers who entered our first ever photo contest. We were delighted and amused by the entries. The staff of The Hill Is Home deliberated for thousands of seconds and several cocktails to pick those deemed prize-worthy, and we had over 160 people vote for their favorite photo on our site last week.
Winners will be contacted individually after this post is published so we can get them their prizes.
We’ve got plans for some additional photo contests this fall, so please keep a watch for those and enter! Your candid snapshot may win you a fabulous prize.
Without further ado, the winners are:
Grand Prize, $100 gift certificate to Capitol Hill Arts Workshop (CHAW): Jennifer Yost for “Hydrant”
