For our latest Shutterbug Photography Contest, The Tennessee Magazine asked readers for photos illustrating their impressions of the “Tennessee Landscape.” With the overwhelming natural splendor characteristic of our state, it presented an ambitions topic that yielded nearly 1200 creative, captivating entries. The Great Smoky Mountains was, as expected, a popular subject, but natural beauty was also displayed in readers’ hometowns and even their backyards.
We’d like to thank everyone who sent photographs for the contest. View winning entries below or click here to see additional images awarded honorable mentions.
