PART 2-

1. One photograph that I agreed with the judges on was the Escalator photo, we liked it because of the lines and that the photographer caught the perfect moment.

2. One photograph that I disagreed with the judges on was the goose picture, I didn't like it as much because the red vehicle in the background bothered me and it was too tight.
