1st place captured a powerful moment in court where it's hard to get a good reaction shot from where they usually place you.
2nd place is a really clean shot that's very graphic that uses the lines to frame the shot. The photo tells the story of first day quite well with the hat.
3rd place: the photographer was right there in a powerful moment, could be cropped a bit better for a more clean background.
