Randy Dodig, a second-year shortstop for RIT, performs a baseball swing for a stroboscopic portrait on Feb. 4, 2022. The images in this series were created using a stroboscopic lighting technique. Each image is a 1-3 second exposure. When shooting in an all black room, sequential strobes are able to freeze multiple stages of motion in a single image. Moderate color correction and toning has been applied.

Third Place: Riley Hayden
