Adult, Junior and Professional Winners “Homebound”
This year has certainly been something unexpected. Our latest Shutterbug Photography Contest asked readers to send in photographs that represent what being “Homebound” has meant to them. Guest judge Lacy Atkins, an award-winning photographer, helped our staff sort through more than 1,500 submissions to select the winners.
Each winning entry gives a glimpse into what our readers are experiencing at home in the face of scrambled work schedules, deserted downtowns and home-based schooling.
Some of the entries capture special moments at home with varying emotions. We thank everyone who sent photographs for the contest. Be sure to view the additional images recognized as finalists.
