2006 Fall Judges

Judges

  • It's difficult to get a clean wonderful dance shot at the reception. The light is low and everyone is in the way. This photograph shows how to get around all of that. It's a perfect pan at the perfect moment. It was ahead of all the rest because of what the photographer brought to the scene. This is another technically difficult dancing photo, but worth the effort.
