West – February 2022 – Portrait/ Illustration

Judges Comments

1st place: Wonderful, strong and appropriate dynamic lighting for the subject. Very strong visual portrait. 2nd: l love the approach and lens choice allowing the subject to become part of the mural. The photographer was seeing. 3rd place: love the expression and composition. the leading lines help so well. HM: great use of the subtle light to shower the subject. Might want to place the horizon above or below the halfway point.
