Image placed in top twenty in WPJA contest!

I was really excited to see that one of my images placed in the top twenty in the Winter 2006 Contest of the WPJA! I'm posting the image below, but you can also view it by visiting the latest contest winners and selecting the First Dance category.



JUDGES COMMENTS: I was taken by the crafty use of front and back lighting, and the way the photographer played with their reflected image in the back. The composition is strong and the moment sweet between the couple. I would have liked if the reflected image behind them was better separated from the actual couple.

Although I missed getting a medallion this time around (you had to place in the top ten) I was flattered to be noticed by the judges and look forward to entering more images in the future!
