         The life and times of Mark and Paula Persons

Saturday September 13, 2014:  Local photographer Jeff Collins was voted Photographer of the Year by the Crossing Arts Alliance in Brainerd.  He was honored as a part of Picturing 2014 at the Franklin Arts Center.  Some of his works were shown at an evening gathering honoring him and giving the public to vote on their favorite photos. 

Some 103 photographs were submitted for the event, but only 60 were selected by a panel of judges.  They include these photos from Mark:

This one is from December 6, 2013, as a ship was leaving the Duluth, Minnesota, harbor headed into the mist on a cold winter day.  It is titled, "Venturing Out."
 
From February 23, 2014, this is "Turtle in the Mist" taken at the Como Park Conservatory in the Twin Cities.
 
Finally, the Stone Arch Bridge as seen on June 23, 2014.  The view is looking south into Minneapolis in the early evening across the Mississippi River.
 
Mark was happy to walk away with the "People's Choice" award that day.

Gallery visitors were divided between the Venturing Out photo on the left and Turtle in the Mist, as seen above.


Quote of the day:  Glad to know that others appreciate my photographs.   Mark < Back to previous story Ahead to next story >
