Third Ed Cahill The Press-Dispatch (Petersburg) Braxton Rice The photographer managed to capture the timely effort of a player who is willing to leave it all out on the field to make the out.

Looking at this photo from a distance is captivating... and looking at it up close is darling. Love the expressions captured by these little girls, and the dark background that really makes them pop. Second Sara Clifford Brown County Democrat (Nashville) Garden walk Not only are the flowers beautiful and frame the couple nicely, it makes me want to look closer and read what they're doing. Great hook. Third Briana Barger North Vernon Plain Dealer Greased pig contest reaction Thank you for the giggle. What a sweet moment captured. With their boots on and trampled ground, I just had to know what everyone in the background was watching.
