First place, a simple photo that was executed very well, we liked the composition and use of light, and seems like the photographer took the time to wait for the moment. Second place, same things apply, could have been cropped better. Third is a good attempt, nice storytelling but technically could be toned better, some light dodging/burning would help the photo read easier.
