Winners Announced! 2026 Views in the Valley Photo Competition

Every year, TVC invites local photographers of all ages to capture what makes the Tri-Valley special.

New in 2026, we introduced three categories for photographers to submit within: Wildlife, Open Landscapes, and Working Lands.

This year's competition drew over 150 photos celebrating the natural beauty of our region in wonderfully creative ways.

Our expert panel of judges had a tough job narrowing down the finalists, and over 170 members of the public cast their votes to select the Barry Zupan People's Choice Award winners from the top 12 images!

We want to thank everyone who participated, voted, and helped make this year’s Views in the Valley such a success.  

We can’t wait to do it again next year, and you can sign up to be notified when the competition opens again in early 2027!
