Brick Man's 'Bridge Between Two Seasons' Wins Photo Contest

BRICK, NJ — A Brick Township man has been chosen as the winner of the Delaware River Basin Commission's Fall 2018 Photo Contest.

Haines' photo, titled "Bridge Between Two Seasons," was chosen by four commission staff members who served as judges, and was among 43 photos submitted by 12 people, the commission said.

Haines' photo will be featured on the commission’s website (click here) and on the commission's Twitter, Instagram, and Flickr social media sites. It also will be published in the commission’s 2018 annual report, and Haines will receive a certificate of recognition.

"I have been hiking, canoeing, and photographing the Delaware River since 1972 and love every trip," Haines said. "I appreciate the DRBC hosting this photo contest that features one of our most beautiful natural resources, the Delaware River."

"While there were many great entries to choose from, Kevin’s photo stood out for its juxtaposition of the red metal bridge with its natural surroundings, a unique perspective that enhances the photo’s composition of a landscape transitioning to fall," said Steve Tambini, executive director of the Delaware River Bridge Commission.

The seasonal photo contest aims to highlight amateur and professional photography representing the beauty, diversity, function, and significance of the water resources of the Delaware River Basin, a 13,539-square mile watershed, which serves about 15 million people in everything from public drinking water, industry, agriculture, and power generation, to recreation, fisheries, and aquatic life.

The Winter Photo Contest begins Dec. 21 and has a deadline of Feb. 15, 2019. Complete contest details, including instructions on how to submit photographs, are available on the DRBC’s website.
