So many captions don’t have names or context. This is basic reporting requirements. Poverty vouyerism is not acceptable in today’s newspaper reporting. Just photographing someone sitting on the road or street or being homeless is never news. There are some entries that lacked human contact or even getting in front of the action instead of photographing people’s backs. Watch your corners and your backgrounds. Some images had people’s feet cut off just a bit. Kudos to the Argentinian photographer who entered as many categories as possible and really tried to put their best foot forward and be competitive.
