#CuseCOVIDchildhood -- A shot showing our city's youth -- from coping with our current crisis to enjoying childhood innocence.

2nd Place in #CuseCOVIDchildhood went to Maranie Staab, who captioned this photo “starting em’ young.”

 

Judges felt Staab’s image captured this moment in time. Judge Megan King said it depicted a child dealing with more than just COVID-19. “We have so many overlapping things going on at this time, which this image shows,” she said. “It’s an image that draws a viewer in.”

 

Judge Bob Gates noted the girl’s expression and her furrowed brow. “Fierce, anger … determination,” he said is what you can see behind her mask.
