Saint Paul Magazine Photography Award

Winter photos.

Last spring I went out to take some pictures the day before a medical procedure. An eagle on Randolph Avenue in Highland Park distracted me from worrying about the next morning.

The summer passed quickly and I almost missed a photography contest sponsored by Saint Paul Magazine, a local publication about a year old. I half heartedly collected a few photographs taken within St. Paul city limits and entered each category. There weren't many entries and all of my photos got some kind of mention in the October 2015 online version of the magazine.

Late in the fall I was notified that my picture of a bald eagle had been selected for publication in the March 2016 print edition. The picture below is similar to the winning photo, also featured online.
