This August, we asked to see the Lake Minnetonka area through your eyes, and boy did you deliver! You sent us amazing images of city landmarks, community activities, people, pets and wildlife and now it's time to celebrate the winners of the 2022 Lens on Lake Minnetonka photo contest. Thank you to everyone who submitted photographs, we couldn't showcase the special places and people in our community without you.
