First place went to a backstage portrait of a musician that made nice use of light and a simple background.
Second place went to an image of an Indy Car driver before the race. The soft light brought out his contemplative expression and the saturated reds in the frame. Shallow depth of field helped keep the busy background at bay.
Third place went to a portrait of a musician. The light from below added a bit of drama to the image.
