First place was the most interesting image, but could have been composed better. We considered getting lower to allow the fence and house roof to blend together, and coming over to the side of the vehicle to make it stand out more from the parking deck. We liked the composition of the second image and the humor of his little hand saw for a big job. Third would have stood out more if it were cropped to just the flames and blue sky with the nice swirl of the green hose leading your eye all around the firefighter. Don't need the truck at all.
