"My Home Town Photo" Contest

Neighborhood Services and the Committee for a Clean & Beautiful Glendale invited all non-professional photographers who lived in Glendale, Montrose, or La Crescenta to take part in the 3rd annual “My Home Town” Photo Contest. Over 80 photographs were entered and those who attended the 5th Annual “Summer Night on the Plaza” voted for their favorite entries in the color and black & white divisions.

Once the ballots were counted, the Grand Prize Winners were announced. Philip Lee won 1st Place in the black & white division for his piece titled, “Lightning”. He also tied for 1st Place in the color division with Marvin Meadows for their pieces titled “My Neighborhood”, and “K-9 Protecting the Community” respectively. $250 was awarded to Philip for his black & white piece and $125 was awarded to both Philip and Marvin for their color submissions! Congratulations to them and all the photographers who entered the contest.
