We have been holding digital photography contests this year to determine the future banners that will be displayed behind the Boardman River Nature Center’s welcome desk. As it is the BOARDMAN RIVER Nature Center, the photos must be of the BOARDMAN RIVER!! The contest for next Spring’s banner has come to a close and winner has been selected by the community.
Sandy Sam Bodjack’s photo entitled “Loon and Friends” received the most votes from the community and is the winner of the 2009 Spring Digital Photo Contest! It was shot at Brown Bridge pond and captures a nesting loon, a muskrat and a couple of turtles sharing a dry spot. She used a blind in order to not disturb the loon who was nesting. It is an amazing shot! Sandy enjoys photographing wildlife from a kayak, which gets her closer to the water and her subject. She is a member of the Traverse Area Camera Club and the Grand Traverse Audubon Club. She enjoys helping others learn how enjoy nature and have fun with photography.
Congratulations Sandy on winning our 2009 Spring Digital Photo Contest!! Check out her amazing photo below!!
