Congrats to all the winners!


The winners please do attend the March outing on 19th at Harbourfront Boardwalk. The prizes will be distributed there at 930am sharp! If you don't show up then, I'd keep them for my kids :bsmilie:
 

There are total of 42 valid photos for this competition, here are all of them, including the above winning ones.

I won't put the photographer's names here (other than winning ones above), so you can discuss/criticize them as you wish. But please be gentle w/ your words, there are a lot newbies who sent in their entries...

some of the pics which are not selected for the final 15 are very nice! i like 19 alot..

Congrats to all the winner. Cheers..
 

some comments on this contest, looking at the nicks of the winners, somehow feel like this is more of who has been longer on the forums and who has more friends and not based on merit leading to unfair advantage. (although #1 truly deserve to win)

how some photos like #3, #6, #8, #10, #15(this is a total joke to be in top 15) made it into the top 15 completely eludes me.

#25, #34, #38 should have been in the top 15. i believe that #34 could have given #1 a good fight for first prize.

#2 i know flowerpot has a lot of friends over here but his photo while technically good, the idea is not original.

congrats to all winners anyway

lastly shoutout to #34 photographer: great shot!

Thanks for your comments, although your first point isn't really valid. Nobody but me knows who the original photographers are when the shortlisted photos were selected, and I didn't push much on which photos should be in the shortlist. As a matter of fact, the majority of the 15 shortlisted photos are from newbies (to the forum) instead of old timers :)

Thanks, guess i am didn't shoot the skyscrappers clear enough. haha.

Anyway congratulations to all winners, i really like all the four winning shots, especially #1 the most. You deserve it.
 

congrats to the winners!!

I just wanna know what that bulging thing with the Singapore tattoo is. Is it someone's arms? Cause it looks like breast to me.

There is a baby inside!! >.<
