Grand Prize Winning Photo:
Bosque Del Apache National Wildlife Refuge
Photographer: Mark Cromwell, Enid, OK
- Mark Cromwell (60) has spent much of his life exploring the backcountry of America's protected lands. His winning photo was taken during a bird-watching trek with his wife. Of his photo, Mark said, "The day I took this shot we were up before dawn to catch the morning light. A few cranes settled in shallow water in front of me and it was serendipity!" As the Grand Prize winner, Mark's photo will grace the cover of the 2010 America the Beautiful - National Parks and Federal Recreation Lands Pass. He will also receive a trip to a National Park of his choice and an Olympus E-3 digital single lens reflex (DSLR) camera kit.
