GOFC Photo Contest Winners for 2010

First Place

Third Place

Thanks to everyone for entering the 2010 GOFC Photo Contest. We had almost 60 entries. The
first place winner is Rick Davidson, proving that you don't have to be handsome to win the contest.
Also, and more important, the fish in your photo doesn't have to be a whopper either. Rick's use of
an unusual angle to photograph a nice boatside catch-and-release of a small sea trout was the clear
winner from the entries. Second place went to Brian Kiel for his layout of a nice catch of trout and
reds. Again, the idea was a bit unusual, as it had no angler included, but the photo had nice color and
texture. Brian also won third place with his shot of happy scallopers. This simple photo went a long way
to show the family orientation of scalloping, as well as that of the GOFC.
As usual, we had lots of entries that did not include any fish in them. I think this year's winners speak
to the need for entrants to consider that fish in photos might better their chances in next year's contest!
