Congratulations to David! We received 8 valid entries - THANK YOU. The judges were very impressed. They said it was hard choosing the winner. Northeastern Wyoming and western South Dakota residents had plenty of furious natural events to capture this summer. The photographs depicted this fact most excellently.

David, we’ll be featuring your image on our social media and web pages for a few weeks. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with our social media community.
