Heart of Ice BY Christine Cook
Our First Place Winner was submitted by
Christine Cook from Naples, Florida
My goal in photographing landscapes is to express the feel of a place, its texture and mood, whether hard, soft, cool, warm, haunting, serene, vast or intimate. Whatever I sense at the time of the shoot fuels my passion in the finishing of a piece. I share this passion in local and state clubs where I teach photography, coordinate a monthly creative group and train judges.
