Just three of the more than 875 photos submitted in a contest that celebrated the 20th Anniversary of the founding of Keep Iowa Beautiful were awarded Best of Show status. But the image of an iconic western Iowa historical landmark was named the Public Favorite following a two-week social media vote taken at the end of January. The winner of that prize is Dave Austin of Ankeny who captured a beautiful image of Manning’s Trinity Church under the stars. People travel from all around the Midwest and beyond to see the church constructed in 1913 which made a nationally televised move to its home in the Manning Hausbarn Heritage Park in 2006. That photo along with the three Best of Show winning images can be found below.
