Photo of the Week

About Photo of the Week

Every Friday, WFDD chooses a Photo of the Week from listener submissions to highlight in our newsletter and on social media. These photos depict the best of our local community, showcasing personal milestones and moments of joy, reveling in the curiosities and wonder of nature, and capturing shared experiences though we may be hundreds of miles apart. WFDD’s Photo of the Week is made possible by the creative and talented community members who share their art with us every week.

We host our Photo of the Year every year to celebrate all of our weekly winners and to bring our listeners together for something bigger than ourselves. Through our love of community and beauty, we depict a year’s worth of moments that we can now appreciate as one. These photos have been shared from listeners all over North Carolina and Virginia. Archives of past Photo of the Week winners from 2024, 2023, 2022, and 2021 are all available.

WFDD's Photo of the Week is sponsored by Vivid Metal Prints.

"I was driving past the golf course in Tanglewood Park one late afternoon. The lines created by the tree shadows and refections caught my eye."

"The head of the Wilburn Ridge Pony Association invited me to ride up to the Scales in his side by side to deliver a roll of hay and check on the ponies. After delivering the hay we found "Blue Eye's" herd and these pregnant mares. They are just two of the wild ponies roaming throughout the Mt Rogers National Recreation Area Federal Park and Grayson Highlands State Park in southwest Virginia."

Martin Seelig of Fleetwood, NC
" This photo was taken just after 8:00 AM on Saturday, Jan 11, in the recent snow. It captures the sunrise light from a small drone over a parking lot at Wake Forest and shows the Z. Smith Reynolds Library with Wait Chapel and other campus buildings in the background."

Matthew Phillips of Winston-Salem, NC
" The setting sun is captured behind a Queen Anne’s Lace bud."

"My dog Umka loves the ocean in the winter! He is so curious about all the treasures he finds at the beach during our walks. Here he is sniffing out ocean treasures, one seashell at a time!"
