Pink Submissions #02 Editor’s Picks
(Special Feature & Winners Announcement)
Proudly Sponsored by Cathay Photo.
05th September 2014, Singapore – Following our first successful run of the Pink Submissions by Pink Photographers Singapore (PPSG) a few weeks ago, we decided to do a Round 2. Our Sponsor Cathay Photo had given the theme “Color Changes Everything” for this round so that all submissions will be based on this theme. Within hours of posting the theme, entries poured in. In total, we received over 60+ submissions from the ladies at PPSG and this round, the photo standards are fiercely competed and the creativity level raised to a new high.
“These are (the submitted photos) beautiful photos. Our marketing team had a pretty tough time deciding the winners. But we finally managed to pick the three that best depict the theme given by us and we liked best!” – CT, Cathay Photo.
We were not able to feature every submitted photos so the Editor had picked out the below photos from the crop to run this feature.

Editor’s Pick #10 – Photo by Rachel Ong

It would have been one of the spooky scenes from any horror flick but the colors from the street decor changes everything. The scene now looks like a busy city with incoming storm. Now color really changes everything here.” – AL, Editor.
Editor’s Pick #10 – Photo by Magdalene Teo-Yong
“This ‘shot-to-death’ statue (Mother & Child) in one of our parks here had been photographed by thousands of photographers – both local & tourists. By using an infrared camera, Magdalene changes the scene (and color) dramatically and presented to us a new shot of an old scene in the 8th color. Clever!” AL, Editor.
Editor’s Pick #11 – Photo by Nicole Wong
“A single color multi-tone image of a pink flower. The pink contrasted so well with the white color on this flower that it simply blends. The flower is full of details and if you look carefully at every single petal, each petal is a masterpiece on its own. Beautiful.” – AL, Editor.
Editor’s Pick #12 – Photo by Sue Levens
“Sue submitted this snapshot of a girl walking near the water feature at Marina Bay, Singapore. The huge deep colored flower display casted its reflections on the lotus pond creating an interesting scene. The purple from the lotus flowers & the red from the flower display coincidentally matches the dress that the girl was wearing – in red & purple too. A very timely shot” – AL, Editor.
