A Magazine Cover: COVER BOY
This past August I found out that an image of mine that I took of my boy won the Make it Minnesota Instagram photo contest sponsored by The Works Museum in Bloomington, MN!! 🙂
As part of my win I not only received a family membership to the Museum, my image also landed the COVER of the August Discovery issue magazine!!
The Instagram contest was all about discovering curiosity through imaginative photography. In this contest, they encouraged Minnesota photographers to challenge their creative boundaries by capturing moments that celebrate learning, exemplify curiosity, and explore the depths of imagination.
My winning image!
Thank you SO MUCH Make it Minnesota and The Works Museum!!
For this photograph, I held a fern leaf over him as he had his face to the sun. As usual, he was a willing participant 😉
