Singapore Young Photographer Awards 2010

This year is my first and last chance to take part in the SYPA, a biannual photography competition for those below 25. With my birthday in June, I was eligible to take part. Phew.

I had to submit 6 pictures from at least 4 genres (from a list of 8) for the competition. After spending days looking through my archives, I settled on pictures from 6 different genres. My main consideration was the need to showcase the breadth of my photography. 

Here goes:

It was a mad rush to submit the photos in the end, as I only knew about it when a friend told me about two weeks before the deadline. Selection was the toughest part though.

Just hoping for the best now...
