Symmetry equates to beauty in winning image.
Christine Neff Kojetin’s photograph Deephaven Docks was taken on an uncharacteristically warm December day. “The docks were obviously empty, but the water was still open and completely still,” she says. “From a top-down shot, I liked the symmetry and the contrast between the dark water and the wooden planks of the dock.”
Engaging in drone and traditional photography serves as creative outlet for Neff Kojetin, and she has some preferred areas in and around the Lake Minnetonka area for photographic opportunities. “I most often focus in Deephaven, Minnetonka Yacht Club island, Wayzata and Excelsior. A bit further out, the [Minnesota] Landscape Arboretum is my ‘happy place,’” she says.
