e. What is your overall impression of the photographer? What did you like or not like? I think that she has good intentions and plans in her head about how the pictures are going tot turn out but on some of them, can't express the emotions as well.

Winning Portfolio: Dustin Snipes
a. What did the judges note as strengths as they were critiquing it? Nice color and composition, good picture, the photographers almost running with them, everybody is doing something.
b. What do you see as strengths? Do you see any weaknesses? I like the angles and how every picture had an angle that was unique to that picture. Also, the creativity and hard work that they put in to take these is noticeable throughout the whole portfolio.
Contest Recap Video:
a. Briefly describe the process the judges went through in deciding the winner. The judges had to look through all of the portfolios, narrow down the options and then compare all of the pictures between the last two options, deciding on the best one overall and even one bad picture can bring you down.
Part 2-Individual Images
1. Describe one photo that you agree with the judges on. Explain why you and the judges do or do not like it. I like the sunset picture with the guy holding his daughter up in the air as if celebrating. The judges said that it is a nice moment and the sky was pretty and I agree. On top of that I also think that the silhouette of the two people was nicely done.
2. Describe one photo that you DO NOT agree with the judges on. Explain why you think the judges are wrong. The picture of the player with a toothpick or something in his mouth doesn't seem as inspiring as the other pictures. The judges said it was a cool picture but it doesn't have any unique factors to it. Anyone could take that picture.
