Judges Comments
Not a lot of agreement among the judges here but 1st edged out second because it's a perfect example of "show me what I missed even if I was there." Behind the scenes moments are often better than event scenes. Second is a delightful rain photo, so simple yet subtly humorous because of the costumes and lack of umbrellas. Third came down to a best-of-the-rest choice and was one of too many images using mirrors. But this was well done and showed good seeing.
