Judge’s comments: More than anything else, Tumpowsky captures hope in a single frame, and for that, my praise goes to them. As someone who graduated from high school not too long ago, this photo reminded me perfectly of the vivacity for which I loved the place. By focusing on one unnamed student among many others, Tumpowsky captured a feeling that is universal.
