Picture of the Day for August 9, 2014

People have been enjoying the Wisconsin State Fair this past week, eating all the fair food, but if you enjoy a little more educational twist and headed to the Department of Natural Resources building, you could pick up the Wisconsin’s Great Lakes 2014-2015 Calendar which contains pictures from the photo contest earlier this year with nearly 500 photos submitted.

My photo, A Hidden Gem, was the first place photo in the natural features and wildlife category and is the 2015 May photo in the calendar. Lost Creek Falls is near Cornucopia on the shore of Lake Superior. Another photo I submitted of an old fishing boat placed 2nd in the cultural and historic features category and is the October 2015 photo and was my ‘Picture of the Day’ photo for 11/25/13.

Besides the calendar, the photos may be used in other DNR educational uses. To see the calendar and other winners, check out the Wisconsin Great Lakes photo contest page.
