Mid-Atlantic – August 2024 – Portrait

Judges Comments

We discussed first place and second place a lot. There were parts from both we liked and thought needed improvement. Frist was nicely exposed and loved the body language but thought a crop and slight tilt to fix the horizons would improve this image. Second has nice light and we enjoyed the room photographed but thought the arm was distracting from the subject. Third place had nice use of flashes but thought a different angle and longer focal length would make it better.
