1. What did the judges note as strengths as they were critiquing it?
The perspective of the photos were really good. The photos he shot were very creative and he had great action shots.
2. What do you see as strengths? Do you see any weaknesses?
I liked his use of creative blurs, but some action shots didn't really need the creative blur on it.
1. Describe one photo that you agree with the judges on. Explain why you and the judges do or do not like it.
I agree with them on the car one in the action category because I think that the lighting and the blur is creative. They think the image is aesthetically pleasing and I do too.
2. Describe one photo that you do NOT agree with the judges on. Explain why you think the judges are wrong.
The tennis one that they thought was beautiful, but the photographer didn't shoot the face in the photo. In my opinion, the photo would've been better with the face was in the photo.
