FEATURE

Comments: All of the judges agreed on the first-place image. We liked its simplicity and quick readability. Perfect for a feature.
1. Jesse Boily/Town & Country News

H.M. Michel Tremblay/Le Quotidien

Free and sexy: these are the two words that best describe the quebec singer Lou Adriane Cassidy’s show at the La Noce Festival.

NEWS

Comments: We considered first place to be one of the best images submitted in this contest. It had all of the elements of a good photograph: light, composition and moment. Technically excellent, the movement with a little strobe captured the feel of the
dance perfectly.
1. Nick Lachance/NOW Toronto

Revellers dance as they march in the Grand parade for the Toronto Caribbean Carnival, July 30, 2022.

Comments: Second place worked nicely for the story.
2. Nick Iwanyshyn/Freelance

3. Evan Buhler/Reuters

Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau plays foosball with children during a day camp at the Patro Le Prevost de Villeray community leisure centre, in Montreal, Quebec, Canada July 11, 2022.

SPORTS

Comments: First place was a bit more unusual for a rodeo picture.
1. Jesse Boily/Town & Country News

Denver Leitch gets bucked off at the Rio Grande Rodeo’s bareback riding competition in Rio Grande, Alta. on Saturday, July 2, 2022. The Rio Grande Rodeo took place from July 1 to 3 and first started in 1916.

Comments: Second was a nicely handled slow shutter pan with some thought given to the bottom-weighted composition.
2. Nick Iwanyshyn/Freelance

Bicycle racers sprint along the straight during the Midweek Cycling club weekly criterium race in Mississauga, July 5, 2022.

Comments: Third was a funny moment, but would have benefitted from cropping most of the photographer out of it.
3. Darryl Dyck/The Canadian Press

Hamilton Tiger-Cats’ Lawrence Woods III tumbles over the advertising boards after being pushed out of bounds during the second half of CFL football game against the B.C. Lions in Vancouver, on Thursday, July 21, 2022.

PORTRAIT

Comments: First place was unanimous for its framing and simplicity.
1. Marie-France Coallier/Le Devoir

Alice Krige, cult American actress of horror and science fiction cinema photographed at Comiccon festival.Montreal Comiccon is a comic book festival launched in 2006 under the name “Montreal Comic-Con”. The event features comics, games, sci-fi, horror, cartoons, collectibles.

Comments: Second would have been helped by a less symmetrical composition. The light was good, but the photographer needed to work the situation and composition more.
2. Chad Hipolito/The Globe and Mail

Carrie Chapple, photographed near her home in Victoria, says that despite being very well-educated she has had difficulty finding steady employment over the years. She also has Asperger syndrome and has struggled much of her life to find and keep suitable employment.

Comments: While the third place wasn’t strictly a portrait, it was interesting to the story and fit the criteria for the category. It needed much better work in post; it was way too light and contrasty.
3. Kevin Light/ Freelance

Marion Cumming has her hair fixed by her assistant Monika Behrendt as she sits in front of her home, which she’s bequeathing to the Victoria Native Friendship Centre in Oak Bay, British Columbia Canada on July 29th, 2022. Cumming died peacefully at home the morning of August 1st, 2022 surrounded by friends and loved ones.

SPOT NEWS

Comments: All of the judges felt this was the weakest category. Is there no spot news in Canada? First place was pretty well handled for the situation. *Judges only awarded points to two pictures*
1. Michelle Berg/Saskatoon StarPhoenix

Saskatoon Police and a conservation officers tranquilize and load a moose into a truck on Preston Avenue, after it made its way into the city. Photo taken in Saskatoon, Sask. on Tuesday, July 5, 2022.

Comments: Second was most interesting for the man smoking a cigarette.
2. Jesse Boily/Town & Country News

Chad Marthaller took action when he realized that smoke was coming from the road and found a car on fire near TWP RD 734 and RGE RD 32 near Teepee Creek, Alta. on Thursday, July 28, 2022. A fire crew from Bezanson responded to the fire but much of the flames from the fire were gone due to a neighbour bringing a water truck and Marthaller spraying the car with water. Local residents said the car had been sitting on the highway with yellow tape on the doors for a few days prior.

MULTI-PHOTO

Comments: Whenever we are considering picture stories or essays, we want to see what the photographer brings to the table. Did they just shoot a bunch of images with the same lens, same perspective, or did they really try to up their game? First place showed us that they can do just that. Different angles, different perspectives—very thoughtful. Nicely done and a unanimous decision by the judges. The work stood out. We liked the combination of close-ups, wide shots, and unusual compositions. Keep up the good work.
