Judges

Here’s a unique moment - a dog, “dressed” in white, studies the face of a monkey juxtaposed with a stylist scrutinizing the bride’s face. The angular body shape of both dog and stylist mimic each other in form. Besides the uniqueness of the moment, it’s just an outright fun image to see.
I laughed out loud when I saw this photo. A solid composition and an opportune moment made for a winning frame.
