A special thanks to friend and professional photographer Krystle Wright for her collaboration as a guest judge. Originally from the Sunshine Coast, Australia, Krystle Wright is an adventure photographer who is also a Canon Master (Australia), F-Stop Pro Staff Member, AquaTech Ambassador and KEEN Ambassador.
