East – September 2025 – Sports Action

Judges Comments

First place is fantastic peak action and good cropping. Second place is a great, clean touchdown/peak action image. Love that we can see the eye barely peaking out from the helmet. The lighting in third place is beautiful. Unfortutantely, the sliver of what we assume is a leg in the bottom right is too distracting. Honorable mention is a great capture. Love how the player on the bottom is framed by the player jumping over head. Wish the ball was in the frame though.
