Monthly News Clip Contest

Monthly News Clip Contest

Random October Winner:

3rd Place, R9 Spot News: “Stranded”
Rich Abrahamson/Fort Collins Coloradoan

Amber Bennett of Wellington braces against blowing snow after sliding her vehicle into the ditch off snow packed Highway 1 southwest of Wellington Oct. 28, 2009. Bennett, who was uninjured in the accident, was pulled out of the ditch by Travis Redmon, also of Wellington.

Congratulations go out to Greg Kahn, a photographer with the Naples Daily News, who is the 2008 National MNCC Photographer of the Year. This is the first year the Monthly Clip Contest has named a National Photographer of the Year, although we are pretty sure photographers have been keeping track of these points for decades. Now it's official.

The NPPA has restored over 80,000 MNCC images after our September server crash. In that process we realize that a very few images may have incorrectly assigned captions. If you do see a problem with an image please report it to contest@nppa.org and we will fix it ASAP. Thank you.
