Judges Comment: I love how this looks like a painting at first glance. It reminds me of Thomas Eakins’ paintings. It is eerie and beautiful at the same time. The photographer’s perspective adds to the mystery.
-
Judges Comment: I like how the smoky colors and use of motion give this photograph a painterly look.
