1st: Photographer caught a beautiful, spontaneous moment. Nice leading lines in the foreground that bring you up to the little boy, with the hat bringing it full circle.
2nd: This photo had some shock value for us southerners. We like that the jet skiers are looking back at the whale and how the curve of the back of the jet skis mirror the curve of the fin of the orca.
3rd: This was just a beautiful shot that stuck with us. The light is gorgeous in this image, and the composition shows a nice foreground, middle ground and background.
