The judges felt "Healing Fields" was clearly the best story of the bunch. The judges loved the way the photographer worked the reading of the names in with the story of the story's characters. They also liked how the photographer never really showed the speaker full frame because they were not a character, but more of a natural sound byte through the piece. What stood out particualrly was the variety of angles and natural sound. The judges said "we couldn't stop watching this story. It made us want more. The closing shot left us with goose bumps." The great us of interviews and allowing the characters to tell their stories is what really made this story stand out.
