I was a bit shocked (and happy) to see the photo that I have submitted for critiquing at Popphoto.com a few months ago being featured under the heading “This Week’s Highlights.”
Above, a screengrab of how the index page of the American photography website magazine looked like. Another page had the accompanying text reads:
This photo submitted by Estan Cabigas is really good. I like the saturated artsy feel to it. The composition is nice, as well as the sharp detail of the water droplets on the boy’s back. I suspect that this photo might be a composite, but I think it’s a good one if that’s the case. The sharpness of the foreground next to the blurred water in the background makes an interesting photo. Also, the anonymity of the subject is thought provoking.

This photo was given five stars on the PopPhoto Flash rating system, the highest rating. Of course, this isn’t a composite as what the rater might have suspected. Original photo was taken in Palo, Leyte while subject was skimboarding.
