dp+ Pick Winner - 3rd photo challenge


dp+ Pick Winning Entry - Photo Challenge 3
theme: sweet Valentines
photographer: Lennox Tpc
title: "They do celebrate Valentines"
camera: Fuji Film Finepix S200 EXR
total score: 188/500


There were 5 judges and 2 voted for this entry as the 1st Pick in their top 3 choices. There is no vote for this entry from the remaining 3 judges since majority of the judges did not reach any consensus on their top 3 choices. A tough decision for all the dp+ panel of judges.

Here are the remarks of all judges who included this entry to his/her top 3 picks:


Judge 3
"When I saw this picture it put a smile on my face. The timing was perfect because it's very difficult to capture a moment like this. Very unique, too."

Judge 5
"Kudos for being in the right place at the right time when nature chose to make its union in the shape of a heart which is a symbol of Valentines, too, although not as sweet. For lack of other more eligible entry puts this on top of my list. A quite unusual Valentine and great capture!"

A special mention from Judge 4 but not included in his top 3 picks:
"Great capture, but then this again is a good picture that just happened. The photographer came across these two insects. The other thing is that with the spirit of Valentines Day, one insect eating the other kind of kills the romantic part, hahahaha... but overall a good image."


It should be worth mentioning that this entry also won the Popular Votes Pick. It means that majority of the  dp+ members who voted, also liked this entry. It is the first time that an entry won both the Popular Votes Pick and the dp+ Pick. A tough competition in the dp+ Pick with only 2 points more than the top 2 Pick, though, but nevertheless, emerged victorious. A CONGRATULATIONS in all caps - well deserved, Lennox!!
