Elisa Sweet Overcomes Icy Obstacles To Win First Place In Photography Contest
July 30th, 2023 - Chicago, IL
Gills Rock, WI - July 30, 2023 - With more than 200 photos submitted from all across the country, Elisa won first place in Fine Art America’s ‘Severe Frozen Weather’ photography contest.
Her winning photograph, titled “Cold View” tells a compelling story and truly encapsulates a moment frozen in time. The photo features a bright red bench covered in layers of ice from severe winter winds/waves sustained just a day prior.
Despite forgetting her Yaktrax at home, Elisa slid and crawled her way until she finally reached the spot that offered this breathtakingly cold view. After taking a rest on the frozen bench, Elisa safely made it back to her car and has vowed to never leave home without her Yaktrax again.
To see the winning image along with some others, check out the Gills Rock Collection at www.elisasweet.com/gills-rock-collection
