The Results are in! The WC Photo Contest #6 started just over 90 days ago and now today it has finished! The purpose of this contest was to get WC lovers out into nature, take pictures, and enjoy the beauty of weather! Keep in mind, the results of this Contest is based off of a grading system explained in THIS blog, and each picture is carefully analyzed for details.
WC works to try to improve their contests each year! Let WC know what you thought of the new grading system and if there are any other improvements you would like WC to make with these Weather Photo Contests!
In 2024, WC hopes to implement an entirely new grading system that is based on user-voting! WC is excited to tell everyone about this more and more as it is in development stages. Stay tuned!
