Mid-Atlantic – October 2023 – Photo Story/Essay

Judges Comments

Only two entries in this category and first place would be hard to beat. Great images, strong edit, with each image telling a different piece of the wide-ranging story. Great project. Same caption on all images pulled it down. We wanted to know the story -- and who the people are. Second place was a solid series.
