Midwest – September 2020 – Spot News

Judges Comments

Another category with a lot of entries, some that were in the wrong place. First place had the intensity that made it stand out and the cutline solidified it's position as the best. Second place was emotional and heartbreaking in a tight, three-picture edit. We may have changed the order. Well done. Third place may have done better with a tighter edit. A couple of the photos had a spot news feel but the series was bogged down by redundancy.
