“In the beginning, before reality had set in, I took my kids shopping and we were stunned to see completely empty shelves where there had once been abundant supplies of paper goods (toilet paper, facial tissues, and paper towels). This photo is my very flexible son Shay showing off the empty aisle (and nearly empty store).”
第二名: “Fenway Graduation” by Raina Levin

“In May 2021, I felt very lucky to have a college graduation at all. 我的毕业典礼是在芬威公园举行的，那是5月一个冷得出奇的早晨。 学生们被分开安排，每人只允许一位客人。 我的阿姨住在当地，她是我的贵宾。 While subdued, my graduation still felt festive, a reminder that we could still be together while physically distant.”
热门获奖者：
“Resilience in Solitude” by Aubrey Odom

“Street performers and musicians invigorate public spaces with their work. 中央公园是纽约市典型的繁华活动中心，在疫情期间，由于封锁措施和安全问题，游客和人流量大幅减少。 在这个时间点（2021年夏季），表演者谨慎而缓慢地重新加入这些公共生活中心，采取预防措施，包括保持距离、戴口罩和接种疫苗。 然而，这些表演者的声音往往被面具掩盖，尤其是那些更容易感染病毒性疾病的表演者。 这张照片说明了许多表演者必须感受到的孤立，他们如此依赖社交互动，并将娱乐公众作为他们表演的一部分。“
“a new pollution?” by Stephanie Loo

“Over three years since I had last been able to see family in SE Asia, I came across a new form of plastic litter on the beach – a discarded mask encrusted with shells. 一种新的污染形式？ How nature adapts to the challenges of the past and the uncertainties of the future.”
