Judges Comments

They saved the best for last! Some really strong pictures in this Spot News category. First was hands-down our favorite. There's a lot happening here that reaches beyond the news of the day and elevates this image to a higher place. Second had great access and spot-on point of view for combining the victim and the crash site into one powerful frame. Third gave us an insight to the hazards firefighters face. Kudos to the photographer for this awesome angle.
