“We are fortunate to have many amazing people, places and fun events throughout the 100^th District,” commented Rep. Davidsmeyer. “With many mobile phones having camera capabilities these days, it is easier to capture images of nature or places you come across unexpectedly that help tell the history and story about Illinois. I receive great comments about the photos from many visitors to my Capitol office from around the state and across the country.”

The photo contest runs through 2023 with winners chosen at three different times throughout the year. Topics to consider include farms, factories, historical landmarks, wildlife, sunrises over a lake and moments of interesting weather patterns. The first round of pictures were accepted up to July 15 with the first winner selected from Winchester in Scott County.

The next deadline for the second round of photos is set for October 1, and the last deadline for the 2023 photo contest will be December 15. Individuals whose pictures are selected will have their photo framed and hung in Rep. C.D. Davidsmeyer’s Springfield Capitol office and will be invited to Springfield to have their photo taken in the office once it has been displayed.

The 100^th District includes all or portions of Adams, Brown, Calhoun, Greene, Jersey, Macoupin, Madison, Morgan, Pike, and Scott Counties.
