First place has some very nice moments for a daily story coverage.
The image in the beauty parlor is particularly nice, with good layering,
moment and composition. There is nice visual diversity in the first
place entry though we felt there weren't strong opening or closing
images to the story and the order could improved.
The second place story had much less visual variety than the first
place story but 2-3 of the images use light and layering quite well.
We wish the photographer was a bit more patient to get some of the
composition nailed, but good use of quiet moments. The story would
have been stronger with a tighter edit, specifically the one of the
green socks could have been removed or shot much much tighter or
more uniquely, and then eliminating one other photo could have
helped. Too many of the images were also shot from the same point
of view.
Only two entries in this category.
