USA - Atlanta - Beauty Queens await the final decision

At a beauty talent contest, the finalists line up to await the judges decision. The girls are dressed in all their finery with dresses, pinned up hair and sashes as they're seated in the gym at the Bedford-King Recreation Center in Atlanta, Georgia. The black community hold annual events here including sports competitions and occasions such this pageant where the girls and also boys prove their talents and potential. One young lady however, sees fit to poke her tongue out at the viewer in a cheeky display of humour and character. Her rivals seem oblivious and unaware of her irreverence but perhaps the judge is watching and her chances of winning are now impossible!
