WBM
and boy did you
deliver! Our third annual
photo contest drew nearly
twice as many entries as
last year’s, making it even
more difficult to choose the
winners.
Talented amateur and
professional photographers
submitted an impressive
array of images in all three
subject categories, landscape,
people and wildlife. The
best of the best are presented
on the following pages.
Many of this year’s finest
photographs were taken at
night, including the grand
prize winner and three that
earned first-place honors.
We also received some beau-tiful
images taken just before
and after nightfall, at sunset
and sunrise.
The award-winners also
showcase some of the best
sights of Wrightsville Beach
and the Cape Fear region,
including several surfing
shots and the customary col-lection
of beautiful birds.

CRYSTAL SUNRISE by David Pascua
This is an image of sunrise at Crystal Pier. What is interesting
about this particular sunrise is the sun aligned directly with the
pier and its pylons.
