The West Michigan Tourist Association is pleased to announce the winners in this year’s West Michigan Photo Contest. From a field of over 900 photo submissions, the top 50 were made available for public voting on the West Michigan Facebook Page. With over 23,000 votes cast, the top three photos were announced this week, and can be found below.
The top three photos will all be featured in the 2020 West Michigan Carefree Travel Guide (available in January), along with the “Judge’s Choice” award, which will be featured on the cover of the guide.
The West Michigan Photo Contest takes place each summer, with any interested photographers invited to share their photos of West Michigan for consideration.
