Judges Comments

The expressions and composition in the first image propelled it to first place. The second image stood out for its storytelling, capturing the competitive and grueling nature of a sport in a single frame. The third image showcased the art of football, highlighting each player’s expression and giving the viewer a vivid sense of the intensity and determination involved in fighting for a pass.
