1st – A New Year by Sabrena Rexing
The judge’s paraphrased thoughts on why this image won:
A wonderful moment between father and son. There is a nice triangle between faces, fireworks and fading parallel lines leading from the bottom of the frame. The black and white processing furthered the image by highlighting the skin tones.
2nd – Teddy Bear by Kimberly Fore
3rd – Fire Skirt by Kimberly Fore
Honorable Mentions – Gone Fishin’ by Denis Eisenberg
Class 2
We had 10 entries in class 2 with 2 awards (1st and 2nd). The winning images are below.
1st – Stormy Solo by Andrew Fritz
The judge’s paraphrased thoughts on why this image won:
The big powerful storm clouds hovering over a tiny bastion of humanity in the form of a building create drama. The red contrasted against the heavy blue sky intensifies the drama.
