Second place is a gorgeous quiet image and very well composed. Third place shows a great find in juxtaposition but could be served by a better crop. HM’s to the campfire, which was gorgeous lighting but needed some human element and the kilted bar patron looking for a place to drink, which was also humorous but needed a better crop.

The light in the third place skiing image was gorgeous but caption was lacking much context or information. Honorable mention for catching the kick to the face.1. Darryl Dyck/The Canadian Press

That is why we used that material” explained Trouton.The Linen Memorial has travelled the globe, firstly from artist to volunteer embroiderer then back to artist and then into the public domain through exhibitions in the US, Australia, Canada and the UK.

MULTI-PHOTOJudges comments: First place is the best edited of all the multi-image entries and easily the best edited of the pandemic related entries we saw, which made up our three winners. Second place featured nice frames, a few we had discussed but not awarded in other areas. Third place had several strong images, but was far too large an entry and needed to be edited down. Honorable mention to rugby, which had some strong images overall, but we were confused why some were kept in the multi-image entry and why others weren’t entered as singles. Overall, this could have been reduced to 6-7 images and would have been first.1. Cole Burston/The Globe and Mail, Bloomberg, The Guardian
