Judges Comments
Alan Berner, Erika Schultz & Bettina Hansen, staff photographers at The Seattle Times. First place is thought to be good seeing after the “happy accident” with a terrific crop with the skates-and-head. Second is good seeing in-the-moment but we feel it’s stronger as a horizontal emphasizing the hands, heads and ball. Third is the crash and away from the ordinary racing.
