WOLFE LAKE MAGAZINE’S PHOTO CONTEST IS NOT RUNNING THIS SEASON

Picture Time Contest Ends

Our own PICTURE TIME photo contest has been running for almost as long as the Magazine itself, and for a couple of years it was a highlight; we’d get many, many entries. It was always a blast to see all your awesome pictures of interesting, funny and gorgeous lake moments. 


It meant a lot of work for us, finding a cool theme, promoting it via an e-mailed News Flash and in the magazine, finding sponsors, keeping track of the submissions, and then … the judging, which was not always so easy. Our judging process has a clear set of parameters and a trusted system that looks at “content and originality”, “visual impact” and “technical qualities”. We’d set up official rules and regulations, and publish them on our website. Board members were not allowed to participate, to ensure a fair process. Trying to narrow the entries down to a winner was always a challenge, but always fun.  


 In addition, we have fewer volunteers this year and .as a result some tasks had to come off the list

2023 Photo Contest Winners

Prize Winner - JoAnne Lussier

Why it is a winner? Clouds rolling across the blue sky; stark white ice floes against blue water; sunlight flooding the lake and land.  Sharp detail of the high-resolution photograph creates a striking image of our beloved lake.  JoAnne will receive a $75 gift card from The Pinecone in Westport, the generous sponsor of this year's contest

Congratulations, Joanne!

Second Place: 'Field of Happiness' | by Linda Hanna

Why we love it -  This photo of two little girls wandering through a field of clover brings back childhood memories and puts us all in a cheerful mood.  The girls are exploring what nature has to offer on one of those perfect summer days, with Wolfe Lake in the background.  While the resolution of the photo is not particularly high, the composition, with the children strolling through the sunlit grass, is marked by a beautifully warm light that softens the vista.

Congratulations, Linda!


Third Place: ‘Cute Racoons'| by Linda Salvatore

Why we love it - Linda Salvatore has been coming to Westport since she was about 4 years old. "My dad taught me to fish and water ski on Wolfe Lake - memories I will always cherish".  Asked about this photo she says:  "During a late morning walk, we spotted these guys still out after their bedtime".  These two sweet raccoons are captured in a great pose, perfectly positioned between the branches of the tree.   There is a certain beauty in any connection between man and nature.   The little kits seem to be fascinated by the camera,  and the late morning light accentuates the intricate pattern on the bark of the tree. 

Congratulations, Linda!

Honourable Mention: ‘Fabulous Fall on Wolfe' | by Thamar Spitzer

Why we love it - A beautiful fall view on Wolfe Lake. "I hope that my picture will encourage people to understand that the beauty of nature can be found everywhere around us, and we can be pleasantly surprised by the many landscapes so close to the cottage," says Thamar Spitzer.   "The canoe ride with my mom on that perfect fall day was picture perfect.  I know that relatives of WLAW board member cannot be winners, but I still wanted to submit this picture."  

Congratulations, Thamar!
