SIXTH PLACE: Photo by Christopher Gendron / Washington
This is a wedding photo of the bride walking up a green grass hill with groom jumping beyond the hill.

JUDGES COMMENTS: The groom's body language and the height of his jump make this work. It suggests he is happy to be married (or at least done with the ceremony.) The weather/light make it feel so summery. The photographer's position leaving the hilltop to bisect her does not help the image.

A simple, compositionally correct image. The jumping groom and the feelings of elation this jump portrays made this image stand out for me over others.
