The winning shots
Editors’ note: These winning photos are chosen from dozens received online at AAA.com/PhotoContest and via email at photocontest@colorado.aaa.com.
Purple mountains majesty ▲
Kelli Keith of Boulder submitted this photo by email of a gorgeous sunset in Boulder. “I took a walk around Twin Lakes, a Boulder County Open Space, when I was fortunate to capture this amazing sunset,” Keith tells EnCompass. “Like many others, I found myself working from home, without anything to do during the pandemic. So, I chose to explore as much Open Space as possible. This has since become a favorite spot of mine to walk, ride my bike, take photos, look at stars, and enjoy the mountain views closer to home.” Her camera: iPhone XS. Member since: 2012 © Kelli Keith
Let’s go fly a kite ▼
Kim Slemint of Broomfield submitted this photo by email of her children, Jade and Zeke, flying a kite near Marshall Mesa in Boulder. “We decided to make use of the Foothills winds to fly our kites,” Slemint tells EnCompass. “The kites were flapping wildly out of control and the wind was muffling the kids’ squeals of excitement. It was a joy to see them having so much fun. As I noticed the length of their shadows, I paused to reflect how quickly kids grow up.” Her camera: iPhone XS. Member since: 1993 © Kim Slemint
