Northwest – April 2017 – Spot News

Judges Comments

1st – This was the consensus number one. The use of the long lens compressed the foreground and background nicely for a nice composition. It was the peak moment of the stand­off. 2nd – Not your typical spot news picture. It isn't often you get tears and laughter. Solid. 3rd – This image tells the story.
