1st Place: Ian Bursill from Leicestershire, EnglandJudges Comments
Great reflection and solid composition.
Beautiful and well balance with the light.
A little Hitchcock with the photographer’s reflection there too but the feel and tone of this makes the bride beautiful and says a lot about the setting, too.

Great composition and use of reflection and color to create a really strong dynamic image.
Great color combined with a good moment - the reflection on the windshield enhanced the mood.
Perfectly happy, this picture has a painting-like quality and really stood out.

Simple, but beautifully done, the wonder on the boy’s face and overall composition with the wedding couple reflected really works.
This is a nice case of the photographer looking for those different images that still tell a story. The expression on the boy’s face and the position of his hands on the glass speak of his excitement while the reflection of the wedding couple provides the context and the source of his excitement. Nice seeing.

The photographer has created a wonderfully layered image that includes many elements in the story-telling process but leads the eye right to the center and the beautiful expression on the girl’s face and then leads you from there up the arm to the bride’s face being made up – really nice.

What appears to be the groom and the bride reflected in her glasses -- nice job of seeing by the photographer.

12th Place: Lidia Bagnara from Italy, ItalyJudges Comments
The photographer caught a classic face with an expression of wonderment and the reflection in the automobile’s window has added to the sense of wonderment.
