Place Name: First Place Contestant Name: Little Falls - Morrison County Record Entry Title: Minnesota teens get a taste and earful of boot camp Entry Credit: Tyler Jensen Judge Comment: The faces make this image the obvious winner. It is technically perfect, the crop brings you right to the subjects’ expressions and it tells the story of the event well.
Place Name: Second Place Contestant Name: Winona Post Entry Title: Locals mourn Tree of Life shooting Entry Credit: Nathaniel Nelson Judge Comment: The vigil photo is a nice depiction of the event. I wish there was more emotion depicted or that the photographer had gotten a bit closer to show subjectsÂ’ faces better.
Place Name: Third Place Contestant Name: Bloomington / Richfield Sun Current Entry Title: govwalz Entry Credit: Raymond Rivard Judge Comment: The photo of the governor shows a candid interaction and has a solid caption. Don’t be afraid to get a bit closer to your subjects, if that’s an option. It would help the moment feel even more intimate.
