Slides are judged over a two day period by a panel of three judges who view approximately 3000-3500 slides. The highest scoring slides are then put into a showcase style presentation choreographed to music and shown at the Yankee Photographic Society event. Fontaine had two submissions accepted into the Greater Lynn program, and shown at the Yankee event. Those honors were for Mirror Lake and Dam Reflection.
