Since 2016, Visit Lake Norman has run an annual photo contest, sharing some of the best moments of the lake ever captured. This year was the 9th Annual Capture LKN Photo Contest, where we received hundreds of entries throughout September. Participants entered their photos by posting them on social media using #CaptureLKN or submitting them directly to the entry page on our site. The contest wrapped up on September 30th, and we are excited to announce the winners!

Pretty impressive, right? And thanks to our followers and participants for sharing their moments with us! You don't need to be a professional photographer to win.

We hope to see more photos from you next year!
