Morgan Webb has claimed the top prize in the Delaware Farm Bureau’s yearly amateur photography competition, which attracted more than 200 submissions from across the state. Webb’s winning photograph shows a young child with a lunch pail walking toward farm equipment, creating a nostalgic scene that resonated with contest judges.
The touching image evokes memories familiar to many farming families – youngsters spending time alongside tractors and learning about agricultural life from an early age. These childhood experiences in farm settings often cultivate a deep appreciation for agriculture and introduce children to the commitment and effort required in farming.
Contest results were revealed during the Delaware Farm Bureau’s Annual Banquet held on December 13. The winning photographs will be featured at two locations: the Delaware Farm Bureau headquarters in Camden and the Delaware Agriculture Museum in Dover.
The competition results are as follows:
Top four finishers:
• Morgan Webb, First Place
• Emerson Hickey, Second Place
• Lois Uniatowski Wilkinson, Third Place
• Kristen Kemp, Fourth Place
Recognition also went to six honorable mention recipients:
• Shelby Alexander
• Charlotte Betley
• April Doyle
• Deborah Felmey
• Madison Pete
• Tracy Thompkins
Photography enthusiasts can start preparing for next year’s competition, as the 2026 contest launches in May. Organizers encourage participants to capture Delaware’s farming community throughout the upcoming year.
