NEWS

1st, “Funeral” by Jonathan Miano, Sun Publications, 4-21-06
2nd, “Easter Sunday” by David Zentz, Peoria Journal-Star, 4-17-06
3rd, “Storm” by TJ Salsman, Springfield State Journal Register
HM, “Power Pole” by David Zalaznik, Peoria Journal Star, 4-15-06

comments-Generally this was a weak category. We saw a few nice feature images that perhaps could have been entered in the feature category. The 2nd place photo by David Zentz probably would have placed 1st in feature.With a tighter crop, the HM picture would have placed 3rd.

SPORTS

1st, “Slide into home” by David Zentz, Peoria Journal Star, 4-13-06
2nd,”Crash into fence” by John Starks, Daily Herald, 4-12-06
3rd,”Soccer Kick” by Ron Johnson, Peoria Journal Star, 4-16-06

comments-Wow, we were surprised at the lack of originality. Photographers are finding the typical moments with long glass rather than looking for new ways of seeing.
