“Threepeat” Winner Gets Top Prize in NCGA Photo Contest
By its exuberant portrayal of farm family life, a non-traditional top photo helped amateur shutterbug Peggy Bellar take home the top award in the National Corn Growers Association’s annual photo contest for the third year in a row. It’s the first year that a top-prize photo did not include corn.
Bellar’s photo shows her sons, Luke and Ben, with puppies at the family farm, in Howard, Kan. It earned her the top prize of $500 and will be featured with all the other winners at the 2008 Commodity Classic in Nashville, Tenn. A gallery of the prize winners will be posted online here in January.
