Camelia, Rose And Wisteria Win Flower Photo Contest

The judges have made their decision, and the winners have been chosen in the "Stresa and her Lake: Flowering Atmosphere" photo contest. Stresa e il suo lago: atmosfere fiorite, as it is in Italian, was organized by the Turistica Pro Loco di Stresa, in collaboration with the Assessorato al Turismo della Citta' di Stresa, two groups that promote tourism and the city. The goal of the contest was to increase the appreciation of Stresa as a floral community, and to produce more images of the city shown in this way. And no small coincidence that this has happened at the same time as the visit to Stresa by the judges for this year's Entente Florale Competition, when Stresa will be judged against other European cities for the title of most floral city in Europe!

And the winners are:

1st Place: Scorcio serale al profumo di camelia, An Evening View With the Scent of Camelias, photographed by Stefania Rosso of Stresa.




2nd Place: Rosa si nasce, A Rose is Born, photographed by Simone Lamorte of Omegna.



3rd Place: Trionfo di glicine, The Triumph of Wisteria, photographed by Umberto Leoni of Stresa.



From now until June 20 all of the photographs entered will be on display at Spazio Luparia on via A.M. Bolongaro. They can also be seen on the Web site www. stresaturismo.it.
