UAW on Strike

Comments:

First — By far the best photograph in the category. Great story, moment, and layering. Isolated light on the kid separates him from everyone else that falls into shadow. The background also adds a lot and gives a sense of place. Even though this was from a planned festival the judges thought this should have been entered into the feature category.

Second — Composition helps the content and adds to a feeling of boredom and solitude.

Third — Clean strike photograph, sign on both shoulders compliment body language and feeling of the burden he is facing. The surrounding fence and sign give context to the bigger story.
