One thing that hasn't been mentioned in this thread is that in order to be eligible for an Eclipse Award, the photo has to have been published during the year.
I'm sure there are hundreds of more interesting and worthy photos, but they didn't appear in a publication.

Print submissions (news/commentary writing, feature/enterprise writing and photography) must have been published in a paid-circulation publication OR on the Internet at a web site that is a same-name affiliate of a paid-circulation publication or recognized broadcast news organization (e.g., The Blood-Horse Interactive, the Boston Globe Online, MSNBC).

Quote:
Photographers must submit via email in jpeg format one image of each photo, with NO identifying marks (e.g., photographer’s name). Photos must be accompanied by a letter from the entrant. The letter must include the name of the publication and date that the photograph appeared. The submission must be accompanied by a single "screen print" of the published photo showing date, publication title and photographer’s name. "Tearsheets" for Internet-based submissions will consist of a "screen print" of the document, which must be accompanied by a letter from the editor or equivalent senior official of the Web site, attesting that the photograph is the work of the author who submitted it and that it appeared on the Web site on the date(s) in question, in connection with a news-related story.
Please note that only the original photo will be accepted. Photographs which include color enhancement, "photo shopping" or alteration of the image, will not be allowed in the competition.
