Scenes of SC Winning Entry: Hunting Island, Teresa Kopec.
“The sunsets at Hunting Island State Park are always wonderful, but the peace that comes over the salt marsh at dusk is truly magical.” -Teresa Kopec
Carolina Critters Winning Entry: Dolphin pod strand feeding near Kiawah, Gayle Bryan.
“I would love to say that this photograph was the result of research and planning, but it was really the result of being in the right place at the right time. I hiked to Captain Sam's Inlet with my gear, hoping for a few good shots. The dolphins fed several times that day in various spots along the inlet, including once right in front of where I was sitting. Fortunately, I had the settings right on my camera because I was too caught up in the moment to give them much thought. It was an incredible experience and I smile every time I think of it.” -Gayle Bryan
Backyard Habitat Winning Entry: Hummingbird on Mexican Salvia, Charles Rucinski.
“This was just a spur-of-the-moment opportunity as I noticed the hummingbirds (finally) taking notice of the Mexican Salvia. I grabbed my camera and took a number of photos, several of which came out very well.” -Charles Rucinski
