I like the photographer’s poetic mood of this underwater photo of the Bride.

Wow. What a beautiful, ethereal photograph. A lot of the images in this category are just too campy, too staged, but this one is beautiful in its simplicity, use of light to convey mood and its evocativeness.

This image stood out for its originality and creativity.

Now this dress is trashed and hopefully not the camera in this image where the detail of the splash of the muddy water makes this photo stand out.

This image is just timeless to me, perfectly executed and reveals a lot about "ending the day." I love, love, the body language and the exhale from the man is very subtle but perfectly captured. Great work capturing a classic image. Another one I would love to have a print of, it's just that timeless.

Sometimes a simple detail will do to capture an idea. No need for a face, a person or a scene here. There is just enough in this lovely detail to make a statement about the dress and leaves the rest to the imagination.

The photographer made a strong portrait where the dirty dress really stands out in this gritty scene.

Very thoughtfully laid out, and executed. It's innovative, surprising and well photographed. There's a lot of thought put into this and I appreciate that. It's something I haven't seen before.

I like the high key detail of this photograph of the bride's face, hair and dirty dress.

The texture and expression of the bride made this image stand out. Simple but done well.
