Our 60th Anniversary Photo Competition Winners!
1st Place - Gracelyn Dominy
"I Have been working on photography with my dad for awhile now. We went down there together and he told me to look at everything as if I was looking through the lens of a camera and to try and see the hidden beauty that is around. Colors the angles. I really liked the drawling on the wall of the owl showing others creativity the colorful flowers. Janesville is surrounded by so much beauty and colorful culture that I tried to get a little of it all in one shot." -Gracelyn Dominy
