Judges'
comments:
"This is an honest and revealing moment. It tells a whole
story immediately. You have a sense of place and a sense of time,
and a sense of news and history. It shows how your environment makes
you who you are. That's everything a portrait should be, whether
it's a found moment or a portrait that a photographer puts together
in the studio. To me, this was the picture that immediately popped
out at me, I think because children have been in a lot of different
themes we've been looking at over the last week. It's not only a
portrait of two people, but it's a portrait of a news situation
or news event." -- Robert Hanashiro
