Nice use of various perspectives, from up high to close ups. All of these pictures have a consistent style and simplicity to them. Nice color treatment.

As a package of images, it shows a nice varied range of styles and subject matter that defines the school as best you can with only 6 images: sports, theater, studying in nature, and overall campus shots, including a drone capture. All technically solid, great color, nice light. Kudos on getting strong, happy emotion behind a mask - not easy!

Technically, these are all excellent images. From athletics to the arts and in between, they give the viewer a strong sense of place. Composition, lighting, and camera angles help make these images stand out. The overhead image helped boost the originality score of this entry.

Great marketing shots!

I feel like I'm paging through National Geographic, with photos bathed in beautiful light and some skilled color treatment. The moments are captured within these majestic surroundings. A wonderful series of outdoor photography.

Beautiful images. The campus is the star as it is captured gorgeously at different times and in different lights. Photographing students engaged in hardy cross-country activity in different seasons effectively shows off its rugged terrain. Overall the in-house photography is very impressive.

Beautiful adventure shots. Great composition.

These images, by the very nature of the subject matter, are interesting. I want to go to this school. I love seeing students being active and having fun. Together, these images tell me a story about Sedbergh.

I'm a sucker for good outdoor imagery and these deliver. I get a good sense of place by viewing these and the technical quality is excellent. The lighting also drew me in for a closer look. Well done.

All technically solid with strong emotion and vibrant content. The images as a package effectively message outdoor adventure and physical challenge, clearly a strong part of the school identity.
