    Entry Credit: Finnegan Ricco, Nicholas Sinn, Anna Kleiber, Mary Bosch
    Judge Comment: A very thorough collection of photos from the encampment arrests. Would have been stronger if all photos had caption information. It's always needed for every photo. Since this had high news value, it could have used a short write-up of the situation above the gallery to give context for viewers.
