Midwest – September 2026 – Photo Story/Essay

Judges Comments

The first and second place winners were not traditional photo stories but images from Dolly Parton events. Good coverage overall. The second place entry could have benefitted from a tighter edit unlike the first place winner which had well crafted images.
