JUDGES COMMENTS: Very strong image. Love the bride's hand on her head and the hands reaching in from the sides of the frame. Great detail in the whites and very rich blacks also help to create drama and enhance the graphic appeal.

JUDGES COMMENTS: I love how the bride in this photo looks like a blossoming rose.

JUDGES COMMENTS: Wonderful control of light, nice moment and a delicate repetition of hands and arms reaching in to form an aesthetically beautiful photograph.
