Judges Comments

Judges shocked that there wasn’t more spot news being covered. There were only three entries here, and two belonged in a different category. In one of those entries, the photographer captured a basketball player’s strong reaction to a three-point shot that would’ve put it in contention for placing in sports. First Photographer captured the moment. Good use of foreground and background. Could use an additional sentence in the caption telling viewer more about the news event. How many were displaced by the fire? Did everyone get out safely? What will happen to the cats? No second or third place awarded.
