Southeast – July 2026 – Sports Action

Judges Comments

The judges did not have much to choose from in this category and some of the entries would have fit better in sports feature. Throwback Baseball has a nice clean play at the plate that any photographer would be happy to come back with. The use of the tilt shift lens in the Second place made an interesting frame combined with a nice play in the endzone. The photographer was thinking outside of the box. Third place, stood out of the rest because of the pitcher's leg position.
