dp+ Pick - top 11 ranking - photo challenge 8 - photographer photo

For our theme "photographer photo", 13 entries made it to the dp+ Pick.  It means 13 entries made it to the judges' top 3 choices. If all 5 judges would each have their own different set of top 3 picks, there would be 15 entries included here instead of 13. It means that only two judges included 2 same entries on their top 3 picks.

Instead of 13 rankings, however, there will only be Top 11 Ranks. 2 entries tied at Top 7 slot both scoring 91/500 each. They are Joanna Lyn Ong and Manuel Yambao Jr. 2 entries also tied at Top 8 rank. They are Rockit Potograpiya and Vhinic Sanctus. Both of them scored 90/500 each.

Only 2 entries got picked twice by 2 judges. The rest of the entries, got picked once only.
Picked twice are entries by Omar Jordan de Guzman and Carlo Paolo Adrillana. Omar Jordan de Guzman scored 168/500. Carlo Paolo Adrillana, on the other hand, got 153/500. The top score won only by 15 points difference.

There were 5 judges as before, 1 is part of the dp+ administration and 4 are select members of the group. Each judge picked their top 3 choices from all the entries and scored them based on 4 criteria which include Quality or the technical aspect of the photo (30%), Creativity and Originality (30%), Theme Adaptation (20%) and Overall Impact or Impression (20%). Each also gave their reasons for their picks. A total of 100% per judge is the perfect score in all categories per entry. Final perfect score is 500 points with 100 point percentage from each of the 5 judges. The one who gets the highest score wins.
