Judges Comments
First place, the kid's face of joy and exuberant plus the embrace was so emotional. It rose to the top almost immediately. Second place, somber faces all around, powerful moment. Seemed a bit over-toned. In the third place, the vigil multiple photos grew in intensity and ended well. We went back and forth about cropping issues but a strong presentation overall.
