First Place: Strong visual variety and a lot of well-composed
photos. The descriptiveness of the captions gave us a good
understanding of the event.
Second Place: Good job of providing solid coverage of a
community event. Several compositions stood out. It would have
benefited from a tighter edit. We know that sometimes the stuff
judges want to see isn't there to photograph, but we would have liked
to see more emotion.
Third Place: Good technical ability in capturing the lunar
eclipse. We would have liked to see more variety, perhaps people
watching the eclipse. It didn't stand out from other photos we saw
when the eclipse happened.
