Judges Comments

First place is very graphic, easy to read and has good leading lines and repetition that allow for various layout options. Second place made us really feel the emotion the subject is showing. We wish there was more context within the image or at least an extended caption. Third place conveys what the audience needs to know and felt timely with SNAP coverage. It also had good depth with layers and clean framing. We wish the caption spelt out the acronym so we knew what it meant.
