It's really awesome, what a moment! Intelligent concept, love the sand flying over the layered composition with trashed bride in the background.

Funny shoot! We wonder what the bride was doing before this photo was taken.

3rd Place: Marcin Labedzki from Gdansk, PolandJudges Comments
We bet they had tons of fun with this session. This is one of the major elements of a TTD: Enjoy the moment! Well done, nice detail. Leaves the spectator wondering how hardcore the trashing was for the entire dress.

We love the detail of the veil, but it's really the negative space that is most attractive in this photograph. Our only technical observation is the cropping. We would suggest a tighter crop to eliminate the eye as it is a tad distracting. Otherwise, very nice composition.

Something about a bride swimming in a dress that pulls us into the frame. The reflection is one of the most exciting parts of this photograph. We keep looking at this frame and trying to decide which parts of it we like most, superimposing a crop over our screen with our hands to see different cropping possibilities. This image would have done better had the photographer chosen slightly more creative cropping

This image supplies us with a sense of urgency that the bride had to hurry up and trash the dress. Did she fall in backwards and kick her shoes off in the air? Even though the pole would have distracted us initially, the shoes flying through the air next to this pole helps to give depth to this frame, making it way more dynamic.

This is a subtle moment that can often be overlooked as the candid “moment between moments†seems to always win the hearts of our clients. We award the photographer for the awareness needed to make this frame. Sand flying mid-air adds to the pace at which this moment came and went.

What an odd scene, just something you don't see every day. Did this bride not read the rules on the wall? “No diving allowedâ€
