“The entries this year were very diversified and difficult to judge. The Best of Show was a very difficult decision to make from all the entries. I feel Bob Baker, the photographer in this photo captured a very detailed and appealing image. All entries from snow to farm animals show talent. I am pleased to have been chosen to judge this show and believe the final choices are well deserving.” Mr. Bob.
