Our congratulations to Travis for having the winning photo for the month of August.
Having one of his images selected during the year as a Photo of the Month earns him a cash award of $25.00 and automatically qualifies him as a nominee in the competition for our 2010 Award for Excellence in Herpetological Photography which will be selected and awarded in February of 2011. The Award for Excellence in Herpetological Photography consist of a larger cash award and a plaque mounted certificate.
