The I Love Canadian Harness Racing Fan Club would like to thank all of the Fan Club members who took the time to capture and submit photos for this year’s monthly Zoom Photography Challenges. From April to September we received hundreds of great shots capturing memorable and unique moments in Canadian harness racing!

Now that the final challenge is complete it is time to determine our overall Zoom Photography Challenge winner for 2018! We want you to select one of these five winning photographs so we can establish the winner of the Grand Prize.

The deadline for voting is Friday, October 19 at 5:00 p.m. (EST).

Here is a recap of the monthly winning photos:

Martin Wins 'Step Into Spring' - Lori Martin of Hanover, Ont., won the April Zoom Photography Challenge which featured the ‘Step Into Spring’ theme. Martin captured this image of the Betterthancheddar filly who literally said ‘cheese’ while she was snapping the photo.

Harries Wins May Zoom Contest – Diane Harries-Hennessy of Falun, Alta., won the May Zoom Photography Challenge featuring the Mares & Foals theme. Diane’s winning shot is of her mare, Great Desire and her colt who is affectionately known around the barn as 'Bullwinkle'.
