The submissions for PaleoWest’s third PaleoPics photography competition are in and after much deliberation, we’re excited to announce the winners for Winter 2021.
The theme was “Your PaleoWest World”—an invitation for our staff to share the people, places, and things comprising their space at PaleoWest and beyond. We gave participants full creative freedom in interpreting this prompt and received dozens of stunning photos in return. Here are our five winning shots and Honorable Mentions, chosen by PaleoWest’s creative marketing team based on factors including photographic quality, general aesthetic, and strength of the theme interpretation.
