THIRD PLACE

Judge Feedback: Nice moment between Lt. Governor Gilchrist and the students. Photographing the actual event that the news story is about is always preferable. The environment of the shop gives added contextual information to the reader that helps them understand what the story is about.

Judge Feedback: Nice job capturing the speaker’s mannerisms that help the reader understand his level of emotional release though he’s wearing a mask. Photographing speakers from the side helps keep the microphone out of their face, which can be distracting to the reader.
