Photography Portrait and Personality ( 3,001 to 7,000)Back
Place Name: First Place Contestant Name: Plymouth / Wayzata Sun Sailor Entry Title: Wayzata wrestler El Damir Entry Credit: John Sherman Judge Comment: Captures a fun moment – different than what you expect to get out of a wrestling meet. Lighting is great! Would have benefitted from a different angle that showed more of that great expression.
Place Name: Second Place Contestant Name: Plymouth / Wayzata Sun Sailor Entry Title: Photography portrait and personality - Jason Jenkins Entry Credit: Jason Jenkins Judge Comment: Nicely composed and well lit. It shows the closeness of the subjects in a subtle, intimate way. A quiet, personal moment shared with readers.
Place Name: Third Place Contestant Name: Detroit Lakes Tribune Entry Title: Wally Rodewald Entry Credit: Vicki Gerdes Judge Comment: A well-composed portrait that reminds us that a compelling image on 1A doesn't have to be "newsworthy." Sometimes it can be funny or sweet. This would make me stop and buy your paper.
