This is a really touching image, the placement of the person really gives this one depth. Excellent image.

Very strong in terms of a newspaper image, this tells a story (albeit a sad one). From my own perspective there is a bit of blow out on some of the flesh tones (although I appreciate that given this is minimal editing there is little that can be done about correcting this. Still a strong image and gets an evocative 8 from me

This is probably the most impactful shot of the challenge. I wish they'd allowed advanced editing - it could have really given it some PUNCH. Sad, the story this tells, which is what photojournalism is all about. 8

Ahhhh... a headline picked right from the headlines. Nice shot that tells a helluva story. Only drawback which is about the only improvement I could see is... if this had been in Black and white, slightly overcontrasty...would have been killer! great job no matter what!!! (8)

I do hope you're out of danger, too. However, this is a very cool photo - the colors are amazing and the palm frond frame is wonderful. I hope that's all the fire you're going to get to see!

Love the varying lights of the city against the brown tones of the sky and water.
