Grand Jury Winner

"This is a highly effective image in its simplicity. Three distinct colors of the hills takes our eye though the image as well as the tractor forming a clear subject. It’s balanced with the layers of hills lining up perfectly. Simple and clean, there is nothing distracting our eye from the enjoyment of the painted hills. Flawless in execution, “Moravian Fields” is my pick for the Grand Prize." - Justin Reznick

Runner Up

"The Palouse is a favorite location of mine and a natural fit for this category. Of the multiple Palouse finalists, this is the most natural and well composed in my opinion. The colors are just right and the processing is very natural. Wonderful light and shadow play and the Red Barn is a fantastic subject amongst the rolling hills." - Justin Reznick

Runner Up

"This is a dramatic image with wonderful light and shadow play, with a clear subject that gives scale to the dunes. Great lines and curves accentuate the contrast created by the light. An all around wonderful image." - Justin Reznick
