The Hancock Park District has announced the winner of its 2022 Photography Contest.

Scott Bechtel’s picture titled “Bald Eagle Fly Away” (pictured below) received the most likes of the photos entered, which makes it the People’s Choice.

The Hancock Park District says the photo was taken near Riverbend Recreation Area on the Blanchard River.

In November, people who took a great photo in the Hancock Park System, on the Blanchard River Greenway Trail, or on the Blanchard River this year were encouraged to enter the contest.

The park district received many entries and they were posted on the park district’s Facebook page with Scott’s picture getting the most likes from the public.

Scott will be awarded a plaque and $200.
