«k.5 1 - I LAMP SHIELD Photography Contest Winner Mitch Robertson This year the Lamp and Shield held a photography contest open to all students. Featured above is the winning entry by freshman Mitch Robertson. This photograph was awarded first place on the basis of its photojournalistic quality. In this photo the photographer used high contrast to give an illusion of snow or perhaps a hypothetical Morgan-Jones Lunarscape. Robertson has had a variety of experiences in the photographic field. He was employed as a photographer by a variety of government agencies and has done work in medical and architectural photography. In addition, he has lent his talents to the Lamp and Shield staff as photographer and also spent long hours in the darkroom. First place in this contest involved a cash award of $10 and the presentation of a free annual. There was a great deal of interest generated among photographers by this contest and the possibility of being featured in the annual. The staff of the Lamp and Shield hopes that this interest is maintained and that next year as many excellent photographs are submitted. We would like to thank all of you for your submissions and are sorry that we did not have room to feature more of them.
