Bags, Backpacks and Purses

When judging this contest, I didn't judge for the literal bag, quantity, "coolness," etc. I judged the literal photo itself. This photo gets first place because it is colorful and shows a lot of detail. Thank you for participating in my contest, and congratulations on first place!

This is another photo I kept coming back to! The gathering of so many bags of nearly the same color is simple, while also intriguing and beautiful. Thank you for taking part in my contest, and congratulations on making the top 10!

As I've said before, when judging contests, I try not to judge solely based on whatever object the brief is covering, but on the literal photo itself. I kept coming back to this photo because the composition is simply beautiful! Thank you for participating in my contest, and congratulations on making the top 10!

I love this photo. While simple, it makes me wonder what she is looking at on her phone. What did she buy? Is she waiting for someone? Great work! Thank you for participating in my contest, and congratulations on the highly commended!

I worked at Starbucks from 2007-2011, and it was probably one of the most memorable experiences of my life. Saying that, I don't just judge based on whatever object the brief covers, but the photo itself. I love this one! It is simple and puts the bag on display. Thank you for participating in my contest, and congratulations on the highly commended!

I love this photo. A boy is on his way somewhere, and the cat seems to actually enjoy the stroll as well. I could never get my cats to do this! Thank you for participating in my contest, and congratulations on the highly commended!
