Maybe I'm being over-critical, however is poor composition and post process
blur (not even nice blur) the standard required to become a competition
winner?

Anybody is too critical, if he/she expects anything relevant from a
competition titled "Harman Photo Crystaljet RC Student Competition".

Of course your message has nothing whatsoever to do with

Tastes vary (and the "digital age" may have made what I
sometimes consider "over-processing" relatively easy and
common in photo images), but I saw nothing here that fits
your description - for me...;-).

I'd add that given it is for inkjet paper a certain amount of post
processing would be considered the norm. I wonder what the original OP's
