Local talent shines brightly at the Logan County Fair MF Photography judging

[August 02, 2024]   The Department MP Photography competition was held at the Logan County Fair once again this year. Lots of people submitted photographs in one of several categories, with many people submitting in more than one. While the judging was closed, all the photos, as well as the people who placed in the top four for each category, are currently on display in the Red Door Exhibit Barn at the fairgrounds.

While taking pictures of the photos on display, LDN ran into Cindy Harris, winner of the first-place ribbon and best in show for the category of People (Black and White). Harris stated that she took an action shot of Billy Don Burns while he was performing live in Riverton, Illinois. Be sure to look through the Lincoln Daily News slideshows today to see the award-winning photographs.
