Judge's Comments
- 1st place - On the Trail with Bush
- Of all the entries this one seemed to rise above the others with a higher quality of images and a more inviting presentation. The size of the images and tighter editing along with the lack of entries made the voting on this piece an easy choice for first place.
- 2nd Place - On the Trail with Kerry
- Like On the trail with Bush, this entry was also a nice presentation with quality images and editing.
- Honorable Mention - Head to Head
- Very nice idea and different approach then the other entries, but it lacks presence and could have used a bit more organization. The Reuters template as a whole is nice, but the image sizes discouraged the judging throughout the competition.
