Things are really looking up these days…or at the very least, these photographers are!
This week’s Take 5 features photos of the forest canopy, all of which were submitted in the past to our annual Picture This: Your Great Outdoors photo contest. The 2019 photo contest is now closed, but we’re hard at work judging this year’s submissions and can’t wait to announce the winner, so stay tuned!
