This past Spring I entered my first local photography contest. The purpose of the contest was to showcase photographs of people here in my town performing their work during the course of a normal workday. The top prize was $500 bucks. Unfortunately I didn't win, and I've yet to find the winning photograph announced and posted online! I believe the entries may be located at my city's Workforce Center so I'll check it out before heading to work tomorrow. I'm curious to compare my amateur skills with the other entries. At any rate, I had a blast taking the photographs. I felt a bit awkward asking permission and explaining to my subjects what I was doing. The contest rules didn't want the subjects posing, but instead capture while performing their jobs. The above were my two entries. I really wish I could have a professional critique. Is it lifeless, out of focus, what? I'm curious to know.
