@PureMichigan i hope there’s no limit because i submitted a bunch lol GL everyone
@leslyeturner The contest allows one photo submission per day. You’re welcome to submit multiple photos over several days. Good luck!
Why isn’t the sunset reflected in the water? This my be beautiful, but this photo is seriously faked. It’s a shame he won when there are so many honestly beautiful images of Michigan that are more deserving.
@Soule053, The winning does reflect the sunset on the water as well as the water on the concrete pier. Not sure why you say it is faked.
Could you please confirm the authenticity of the winning photo as it looks photo shopped. There should be a significant orange reflection on the water.
