The first-place frame captured a great father-son bonding moment with the dad smiling at the son standing on his lap. I like how the image was wide and showed the different colors green, yellow, brown and blue colors on the train. The second-place photo boasts nice colors with all the girls in the same green, red, orange, gold and black unfirms. There's a nice symmetry present with all the cheerleaders doing the same routine and a place for your eyes to look with the girl bending to cheer underneath the front cheerleaders' arm. The third image works well because the pastor has a nice smile on his face that gives a sparkle to his shiny white and gray robe. It would have worked better if the man in the far left was closer to the pastor so there wasn't as much dead space.
