In September six winning photos and 14 honorable mentions were selected. Nick Hornbacher, Bismarck, was deemed the Best of Show winner for the photo titled Docked Riverboat at Sunset, featuring the Lewis & Clark Riverboat on the Missouri River. This year’s contest, which started in May, attracted a record 987 photo entries.
