JUDGE'S
COMMENTS:
This
black and white image was very stunning. The photographer
left enough space to give it a great spacious composition.
Very moody yet intimate feel to this picture.

JUDGE'S
COMMENTS:
This
picture is totally campy, but is at the same time
a joy to look at. The man’s face on the left,
makes this a nice picture. It would not have been
half as successful if it was not for the juxtaposition
of the older man with the children.
These
are people who know how to party.

JUDGE'S
COMMENTS:
A
very funny picture with the bride looking on in
bewilderment at the antics of her new husband.
This unusual photograph made the top five because
it was different and unexpected. Losing part of
the guy’s hands hurts this photograph a little.
