Place Name: First Place Contestant Name: Iowa Falls - Times Citizen Entry Title: One dog saved, one perishes in Wednesday fire Entry Credit: Corey Meints Judge Comment: So much to take in with this photo: the connection everyone feels with a pet, the tragedy of a house fire, the loss to the family, and the risk undertaken to make this rescue.
