The votes are in and the top 10 most impactful photos from the 2025 Picturing Rising Tides photo campaign have been chosen! Picturing Rising Tides is an annual photo campaign that aims to raise awareness of the impacts to New Hampshire’s coast due to flooding and high tides. This year, 20 people submitted 53 photos from 10 communities across New Hampshire’s coastal watershed illustrating coastal flooding. From there, 156 members of the public cast 654 votes supporting the most compelling photos. Thank you to everyone who submitted photos and voted!
These top 10 most voted photos will be printed and displayed at local events, libraries, and community spaces with thanks to CAW’s 2025 sponsors, Piscataqua Region Estuaries Partnership (PREP) and VHB. Stay tuned for a gallery schedule. We are excited to announce the following top 10 photos of Picturing Rising Tides 2025!
