Entries are being accepted by the Lower Loup NRD (LLNRD) for their 2025 photo contest, intended to inspire photographers of all levels to visit LLNRD recreation areas and explore the scenery.
High-resolution files can be submitted to [email protected] by midnight on May 15, 2025. Photographers retain ownership of their images, and through entry grant the LLNRD potential use of their images in social media, website content, digital use, and in printed materials. LLNRD directors, employees, and their immediate families are not eligible to win.
Photos need to have been taken within the Lower Loup Natural Resources District. Eligible photo subjects include nature, wildlife, people, agriculture, recreation, conservation activities, local events, and more.
Hundreds of images were entered in the 2024 contest, won by Ravenna resident Cheryl Albright with her image of Annevar Park on a foggy morning.
First, second, and third places will be awarded for the 2025 contest, with a print of the first place image to hang in the LLNRD headquarters in Ord for a year before being presented to the photographer and being replaced by the next contest winner.
Those with questions are encouraged to contact Alan Bartels at 308-728-3221 or [email protected]. For updates, visit the Lower Loup NRD’s Facebook page or visit LLNRD.org.
