April Photo Contest ‘Spring into Summer’
It’s that time again, Seldovia!
The transition is happening—snow is melting, water is flowing, and the days are finally stretching longer. April in Seldovia is full of change, energy, and those first exciting hints of summer.
Photos can be candid or scenic, indoors or outdoors—what matters most is the feeling: renewal, excitement, and the simple joy of the changing season.
Show us YOUR APRIL PHOTOS OF:
Melting snow, dripping icicles, and flowing water
First signs of green, budding plants, or early blooms
Sunny skies mixed with classic April weather
Beach walks, trail hikes, and getting back outside
Boats, fishing prep, and life returning to the water
Wildlife and birds becoming more present and active
Golden evening light and longer days
Friends, families, and pets enjoying the fresh season
