We had a really nice evening at the Worcester Photography Centers Photo Meetup last night. We had a special night showcasing the images members submitted for the Art in the Park photo contest. We were joined by several members of the art in the park committee who graciously announced the 8 winners and shared some valuable feedback about the photos. We would like to share with you the results of the contest and the insight on the images we received from the committee.

Congratulations to all the winners! Wonderful imagery. That Grand Prize Winner by Scott is truly art. The subtle yet striking complimentary color, and incorporating the foliage at the bottom, which continues mirrors the shapes of the reflections in the bottles, is superbly done.
