4-H photography students put their work on display at Nebraska State Fair
GRAND ISLAND, Neb. (KSNB) – The Nebraska State Fair continues in Grand Island this week, and it’s an opportunity for 4-H students to show off some of their photography skills through an exhibit.
The students come from all 93 counties in Nebraska and bring a unique photo from their area with them in the exhibit.
The photos were awarded with ribbons on Wednesday, based on criteria, such as focus and clarity of the photo.
Extension assistant from Fillmore County, Alexis Schmidt said the judges have an interesting way of organizing the exhibit for people to see.
”There’s quite a mathematical equation to ensuring that everything gets displayed properly,” Schmidt said. “We count out all of the exhibits to make sure the number is correct, but just making sure that it’s a nice eye-appealing display for the 4-Hers to showcase their exhibits.”
She also said one purpose of the photo contest is to help 4-H kids, who participate find their interests.
”Nebraska 4-H is rooted in the ‘thrive’ model, which sparks youth to find their passions or those little pieces that inspire them and find a career path or something along those lines,” Schmidt said.
The contest also allows 4-H students to network with professionals in order to take their passions further.
Schmidt said the kids also learn a number of skills through the contest that could help them in the future.
“They’re learning all sorts of skills from behind the camera to seeing that their focus is right, to ensuring that their data tags are properly labeled for sure, but also marketing their project,” Schmidt said. “This could be an entrepreneur project for them somewhere down the line.”
She also said seeing the pride on the kid’s faces after they win a ribbon is her favorite part of being in the 4-H program through the UNL Extension.
“Seeing the end display and seeing all of the kids find their projects and just having that smile on their face, knowing that their hard work paid off,” Schmidt said.
The 4-H photography exhibit will be on display at the Exhibit Building at the Nebraska State Fair through Sept. 2.

LINCOLN, NE — Ole Miss baseball will have to wait until May 31 to finish its second game of the Lincoln Regional.
The game between Ole Miss (37-20) and Nebraska (43-15) will resume May 31 at noon. TV information has not been announced. The game went in a weather delay at 10:20 p.m. before the ninth inning on May 30 because of rain and lightning.
No. 2 Rebels are leading No. 1 Nebraska 6-3. It’s a winner’s bracket game in the Lincoln Regional at Haymarket Park.
Ole Miss has taken control of the game after entering the sixth inning down 1-0. Starting pitcher Taylor Rabe pitched six innings and gave up one run.
Owen Paino had a two-run double in a three-run sixth for the Rebels. Ole Miss scored two runs on bases-loaded walks in the seventh.
The other two games on May 31 remain in their originally scheduled timeslots. If Ole Miss wins, the Rebels will face the winner of Nebraska and Arizona State on May 31 at 7 p.m. The Cornhuskers and Sun Devils play an elimination game at 2 p.m. to get to the night game.
If Ole Miss wins that game, the Rebels will move on to a super regional against the winner of the Auburn Regional. If Ole Miss loses, the Rebels will play in an if-necessary game against the same team on June 1 to decide who wins the regional.
