This category had a few multiple photo submissions that should have been entered as singles, and with tighter edits. A couple of examples would be photo # 3 in the Marilyn Monroe event. That could have been a stronger single entry photo with a bunch of Marilyn Monroe lookalikes starting back at you. It was a nice event but a missed opportunity. The evacuation photos also would have been a stronger entry if it had been edited down to 3 photos.
First place : Was just an all around good take. I remember judging this same event a few years ago and this was a much better job. Not sure if it was the same photographer.
Second place showed good use of a drone mixed in with traditional photography. Could have taken first place with a tighter edit.
Third place- really nice graphic elements
Alternate- the woman in the background reacting makes the photo.
