2010 St. Mark's Photography Contest Winners Announced
St. Mark’s Episcopal Church of Augusta, Maine is pleased to announce the winners of the 2010 Photography Contest. More than three dozen photographs were entered by close to a dozen photographers from across Maine. The winning photographs will be reproduced on greeting cards that will be sold by the church as a fundraiser. Photographs were judged on the basis of creativity, photographic quality and effectiveness in conveying the beauty and/or unique character of St. Mark’s Episcopal Church. After much deliberation, the winners were announced by the Jury on March 3. St. Mark’s Episcopal Church congratulates all the photographers and thanks them for their submissions.
