Week 41 Winner

The winner of Week 41 of our #52weeksofnature photo contest is Kyle Broxterman (@brox_rocks). There are moments in time when you just have to stomp on the breaks, jump out of the car and capture the shot. That is exactly what happened here when Kyle created this stunning image. Kyle has won a $100 gift code to hippytree.com and we are donating $100 to the Access Fund in his name. Learn more about Kyle below.
