The Island Mountain Ramblers have a proud tradition of photography contests, though it’s been many years since the last one. As one long-time member noted, the 2025 contest is likely the first to be completely digital!
A big thank-you to everyone who participated in this year’s contest. Your contributions brought a delightful and creative touch to our Christmas party
