Week 3 of the Kane County Student Photography Contest is here! Each week, the hardest part is narrowing down the submitted photos to 10 because there are so many great examples of photography, ranging from landscape stills, unique portraits, and even long exposure light paintings. Thanks to the Kane County teachers and students for submitting 82 photos this week!

There are seven weeks left in the contest, and new participants are always welcome. Public and private high school teachers are encouraged to submit their works to Mike Ademe at the Kane County Regional Office of Education.

Also, tune in next week for more details about the photography reception at the end of the contest. Now it’s time to see the top 10 photos submitted this week!
