Judges Comments
First place tells the story effectively and made us want to see more. Second place has a unique perspective. Aerial view was the best approach to showing the impact of this scene. If you have the access to it, use it. You made great use of it. Third place tells the story well. A tighter crop from the left could've helped focus the viewer's attention from an otherwise busy/distracting frame. Overall, this category had some good entries.
