Midwest – January 2021 – General News

Judges Comments

Once again, too many feature photos in the General News category. The news photos that rose to the top for us were the DACA Dreamer hugging her 5 yr-old son, a singular sweet moment. The message above her capped it off on this first place photo. The January 6th protest by Trump supporters outside the Michigan St Capitol was well photographed and edited. Nice composition along with some nice moments really made for a strong entry. The quietness of the Presidential Inauguration reflected the days following the insurrection. Nice light and framing on this third place win.
