First Place: Fantastic photo, really captured the emotion of the moment. Great colors, the person on the right and the dutch tilt really add to the image. Second Place: Very nice moment, incredible eye for capturing the shadow on the ground. The judges thought the image would have been stronger as a vertical thus reducing the distractions and making the subject the stronger focus of the image. Third Place: Very nice moment, great to still see the words written on the wall despite the reflection. Nice framing, the reflection adds a nice extra layer to the image. Honorable Mention: Beautiful image, great job capturing the sunburst. Judges would have liked to see the photographer get a bit closer to really separate the people from the ground.
