Third place goes to #8 by Rachel Barr. I was so struck by her vision I offered her a post as Contributing Editor Fort Davis! Look for her insight into local culture in Fort Davis in a series of upcoming articles.

A special Editor’s Choice Award goes to set #3 by Mark Ofenstein. These are beautiful photos that show a strong eye for composition and good production values. I am very surprised they received so few votes! They have my vote, though.
