There were many decent but typical celebration features, but the best was the hockey photo with several good faces and a peak moment. Third place was a clean read with good emotion. Second place was a well shot graphic feature, but could have benefited from a tighter crop to emphasize the pattern of the reaching hands (maybe a vertical ?)
