Categories and Voting

The People’s Choice and Youth categories will each have their own voting pages. The top three photos in each category will be recognized as the first, second, and third-place winners in order.

All staff can vote online during the voting period April 16-21. The voting pages will be accessible on the Lab’s intranet. Staff may cast a vote for one photo on each of the two category pages. Look for announcements about when, how, and where to vote on the internal home page and in other notices.

Announcement of Winners

Winners Announced on Wednesday, April 22.

We will share an online album of all the entries so everyone can see all the wonderful photography taken by Brookhaven Lab staff—and the children of Lab staff—who participate in the Photography Contest.
