Two of my photos won second place awards in the Historic Yates Mill County Park “Mill As Muse” Photography Contest. Yates Mill is a fully restored grist mill located in Raleigh, NC. The mill and park area that surrounds the mill have been open to the public since May 2006, and are picturesque throughout the year. My photographs were taken in late 2007, at the peak of fall color, and were entered in the two contest categories – “The Mill” and “The Park”. The contest culminated with a reception and photography exhibit on February 15, with all of the entered photographs on display.

My two entries:

If you have an opportunity to visit Yates Mill, I highly recommend it for both adults and kids.
