A 2019 Readers' Photography Showcase
2019 Oklahoma magazine is the chance to see some visually stunning
Among my favorite parts of putting together Outdoor
images. And there’s no better time to see those images than
during our annual Readers’ Photography Showcase competition.
The photographic talent on display by this magazine’s readers
is no less than stunning. The best of these could easily capture
any national award for the best nature photography of the year!
The RPS entries seem to keep getting better and better as the
READERS’ years go by. This year’s crop is no exception. As usual, there are
only so many pages in our special RPS issue in which to share
this visual harvest. And so, we are forced to choose what we
believe are the “best of the best” for inclusion.
The following pages feature 124 astounding views of nature’s
beauty and bounty, a result of the dedication of some 80 different
PHOTOGRAPHY artists who wielded a camera to capture a moment in time for all
of us to enjoy. That means for every photo that earned its way
into the magazine, there were six others that were left behind.
Regardless, I want each photographer who submitted to RPS
SHOWCASE to know that his or her efforts are seen and greatly appreciated.
Without all of you, we couldn’t adequately do justice to the
striking sights that can be witnessed in Outdoor Oklahoma!
