FIRST PLACE - $100

"Schuylar" by alphanikonrex

Comment by judge David Ryan of the Globe staff: "The composition is great, there's wonderful lighting, and the pony looks like it is interacting with the photographer. It's really a nice moment."

(Ed. Note: alphanikonrex is 14-year-old Arman Bilge of Lexington, whose portfolio of photos underwent a Globe Critique by staff photographer Yoon Byun in July, and who captured 3rd place in our Spring Sports contest in June of 2009.)

SECOND PLACE - $50

"Catch Me If You Can" by Cool HDR (Chris Pokorny)

David's comment: "This is an excellent grouping. Nice cropping as well, with no paws or ears cut off. I also like the near-square format. Very effective."

(Ed. Note: Chris placed 2nd in our May "Landscapes" contest.)

THIRD PLACE - $25

"Play Ball" by suzfoldsfive

David's comment: "Another great moment that depicts the interaction between a dog and a human, but shown in shadow. Very creative. Not sure I like the vignetting around the edges, possibly from a lens hood, but that's not a big deal; it captured a really wonderful moment."

Here's a full-screen gallery of all Top 10 winners. Congratulations to all!
