Military Pride

 Military Pride is not reserved for Veteran's Day, the 4th of July, and Memorial Day.  It's not just fanfare, flags, and fireworks.  Military Pride is the day in/day out, 24/365 grit and loyalty to country and family.  And military kids know this better than most.   They understand symbolism and sacrifice; loneliness and loss; commitment and connection.  This photo challenge gave students the opportunity to demonstrate the different faces of Military Pride and its relationship to their lives.  


FIRST PLACE:  CAMILA MARTINEZ

Excellent composition and strong technique.  Creative approach to the theme. 


SECOND PLACE:  DAVID SMALL

Great angle/perspective.  Strong focus and exposure on the foreground. 



THIRD PLACE:  DRAVEN SAUCEDO

Good job filling the frame and incorporating a background.  Be careful to keep enough light in all elements of the image.  


FOURTH PLACE:  FINLEY HUNTING

Creative approach to the theme. Strong emotional response.  Image might be stronger with a few stops down in exposure and perhaps all of the hand in the frame. 


FIFTH PLACE:  MORGAN HOLLINGSHED

Good job filling the frame with a variety of objects to tell the story.  Exposure is a little dark.
