A special thanks to friend and professional photographer Chris Beck for his collaboration as a guest judge. Chris Beck is no stranger to amazing landscapes and wild animals. Military trained in cold weather survival and backcountry skills, he decided to stay in Alaska when his tour was up. When not photographing commercial assignments or weddings, you can find Chris in the backcountry looking for wildlife. With more then 2 decades of experience, Chris is an excellent resource when it comes to reading the scene and getting the shots. Although Chris has shot for many publications, his true passion comes from helping other explore and learn more about photography. Chris has taught photography classes all over the state.
