1. Firefighers – A strong image from a difficult situation. It captures the camaraderie of the firefighters and their exhaustion. Tells the story in a single frame.
2. Forest Fire – Beautiful light, strong composition, and an effective spot news photo.
3. The photographer stayed in one place too long, leading to repetitive images. We would have liked to see more variety in angles and focal lengths.
