1. Emotional scene. Nice lighting. Clear quick read. Dramatic use of mixed lighting and exposing for it. This was the most emotional photo from the selections.
Nice composition of an impactful scene. This is an example of a unique spot news event and the photographer making the most of it.
Fires can be hard to expose for, good job exposing the light and capturing a moment.
