Jared Mitten won best of show with his large aluminum plate print of an Alaskan scene. He named the 46-second exposure of the coastline of the Turnagain Arm, part of the Cook Inlet, "Twilight."

He doesn't call himself a professional, but rather an "experienced hobbyist" who takes trips to get photos.

Jared said he liked his other print in the show better, but the judge chose this one. He said, to him, the photo is more about the story of taking it and his memories.

He said the shoot was like an expedition, taking them to a logging road off a township road off a county road in Lawrence County.

Crabtree says he wants his photos to be undatable. He photographs nudes in nature so there are no reference points.
