The Smile of Youth

by

Dennis Panlilio

Wacom Asia recently held the Wacom Smiles Photo Contest. The contest had two categories: Photo Collage Contest and Digital Photo Contest. Contest period was from May 1, 2007 to July 1, 2007. 103 entries from all over Asia were entered into the Photo Collage Contest category.

Dennis Panlilio from the Philippines won the Photo Collage Contest. His winning entry entitled The Smile of Youth is actually a collage of 3 different photos combined together to make the image seamless to fill the frame with their happy smiles.

Philippines’ Dennis Panlilo took the opposite approach with “The smile of youth” diffusing the photo’s center to allow your eyes to wander through the multitude of smiling faces as if you were wandering through a lively crowd at a party or festival.

We like how the effect creates two tones of skin and clothing from the color photo, but most of all, we like looking through all the smiling faces!

Congratulations Dennis!
