The Winners

On Lake Superior, beauty is a circular thing - one finds beauty all around the circle of the lake. Once again this year's amateur photo contest - our sixth annual - confirms this truth as stunning shots were submitted (from more than 140 photographers) portraying places, people and spectacular moments everywhere along, near or in Lake Superior. Choosing the final few to feature here was a deliciously difficult task for our judges. We hope you'll savor these photographic treats.
