    Judge Comment: I like the choice of motion blur and the focus on the closed sign. The composition appears to be thoughtfully considered, and the story is summed up visually. Good work.

    Judge Comment: Good level of human interest and good exposure. More thought to the composition could have been considered. I'd like to see the mic and cord more clearly so it is more clear as to what's happening here.

    Entry Title: Students march for pride
    Entry Credit: Paul Farias
    Judge Comment: There could be a greater element of human interest if there was more focus on one person or just a couple of people. This could be done with a closer angle and decreased depth of field.

    Contestant Name: Dallas College - Richland
    Entry Title: We're not going to take it - students march

    Judge Comment: Composition could have been more strongly considered. Exposure is good.
  • Competition Comment: More thought can be put into composition and the intended visual statement. Exposures were good across the board.
