Sabrena Rexing - A New Year

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.

A Barn under Stormy Skies

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.
