Judges’ Comments on the Winning Image
Diane Skinner:
Very effective, poignant and symbolic interpretation of what people all over the world are feeling right now – the lighting of a candle in memory of all who passed because of Covid while keeping our hopes up the vaccine will spare the rest of us. This fabulous image sums it all! Congratulations to the maker.
Kim Stevens
Relevant image with a poignant story to tell.
Cleverly conceived and well executed.
A message of hope in the time of crisis.
Adri van Oudheusden
It is wonderful to see an image that symbolises so many factors in our lives at this time. It is something different and out of the box. The composition works perfectly and close attention was paid to detail.
