2021 Wisconsin State Fair Photography Contest

Like many things, the 2020 Wisconsin State Fair was cancelled so there was no photography contest last year. But...there was one in 2021 and the judging was July 6th.

The day started with the five amigos (Denice and I, Bob Crocker and Chris and Lynn Prober) getting together for breakfast before heading over to the Fair for photo judging day.

The results are now in and Lynn Prober walked away with a Judge's Favorite ribbon, 5 1st place ribbons, 1 second place, 2 thirds and 2 fourth place ribbons. Bob received 3 1sts, 2 2nds, 1 3rd and 4 4ths. Chris got 2 1sts, 1, 2nd and a 3rd.
