Raw emotion

He has a beautiful face and the smile has been captured perfectly. Great use of color here, subtle tones but bold enough to interest the viewer and tell a strong story. The subject is crisp and in focus, and the pink glasses really make a statement. Well done!

A very a strong and expressive photograph of a local personality enjoying a beer and sharing a laugh. Beautiful processing and strong use of light and contrast here. You can really feel the moment of joy coming through his bold expression, well done!

I was inspired almost immediately with a desire to study this photograph, over and over again. One might call this moment completely ordinary, but her expression is full of life and the joy in her smile makes it clear that she is completely content. The lights in the train do justice to the features of their faces and create a certain feel of nostalgia. Beautiful processing, use of contrast, and the comical position of the boy all work together to create a truly stunning piece of art. Congratulations!

Wonderful capture, a winning smile, and those sparkling eyes that catch your gaze and leave you feeling enlightened. Great composition in an interesting location that makes you wonder about this man's story and background. Great use of light as well, just wonderful!

Wonderfully expressive moment, you can feel the overwhelming mix of emotions in the bride's embrace. The light and color tones here are like a painting, just gorgeous. The lighting does a fantastic job of highlighting the details in their clothing and jewelry, which help to tell the story. Truly, a beautiful capture.
