1st Place: Mark Kegans from Iowa, United StatesJudges Comments
The composition is brilliant. The young [child's] arms pulling us to their face, to the women behind. Great photo. Great expression and framing of others who each contribute to the overall feeling.

2nd Place: Clare Barboza from Washington, United StatesJudges Comments
This is a beautiful image. Timeless. Great light. An almost impressionistic image of a young girl in a white dress against a pastoral setting. Beautiful soft light and a field of flowers provides the backdrop for her angelic face and dress. The details in the background – the fence, the flowers, the sky - are all quite subtle yet add a lot to the mood of the image. And the contrast of the white dress against the grey tones works well in B&W.

Such a great moment catching the girl in movement and making a face. Funny juxtaposed with the dancing couple.

The use of space is great. I love that the boy is passed out and the party is still going on in the back. Great moment!

I like the way the photographer framed this girl, chewing on the cloth, with the white spaces around her. Lemmony Snicket, anyone? Very cute.
