PUBLISHER’S CHOICE WINNER:

“Warriors over the Wasatch Air Show” by Mike Nixon

“Out of all the pictures this one has the most human element to it. The photographer definitely knew how to frame his subject. The light, especially the reflection off the canopy is almost perfect and not overpowering. The viewer’s eyes are drawn to the pilot and plane by having them crystal clear in focus, this is done by having camera aperture set perfectly to blur the background. A great shot all around.” –Chad Roylance
