2023 Photo Contest winner!
Alex Bovkis photo
We had a great response to the 2023 photo contest call — 17 members submitted 42 photos. The winning entry is above, by Alex Bovkis of Bayfield Inlet. It‘s on the cover of the 2024 Directory and Yearbook. Do you recognize the spot? Those sailboats are docked at Thompson Marine, leaving Bayfield Inlet. We loved the novel composition, the water reflections and the sense of approaching dusk. It’s a sunset photo but far from a cliché!
Thanks very much to the following people who also submitted photos to the 2023 contest: Alison Wilkin, Ally O’Grady, Kate Cino, Kirk Gabel, Krista Pedersen, Liz Janik, Matt Sanger, Mindy Grant, Penny McCahill, Randy Hansuld, Ruth Anne Winter, Stephen Bushell, Susan Buckley / Morgan Smith, Susan Gordon, Susan Weber, Tiffany Hassell.
The three judges of the 2023 contest were BNIA Board Members Sara Carter, Ethan Ellis and Art Kilgour.
