Since Canon PhotoMarathon XV 2017 is happening this Saturday, I looked through the winning photos of last year’s PhotoMarathon 2016.
This photo is my favourite for last year’s Canon PhotoMarathon.
It’s 2017. Happy New Year!

May 2017 be a fantastic year for you and your loved ones!
It’s the last day of 2016. Hope you had a good year!

A very atmospheric shot – many hands grasping at a light source.
An apt illustration for an alien movie, or “The X-Files”.
Really love the lighting!

This photo is really interesting.
The window serves as a picture frame so it looks like “there’s a picture within a picture”.
And to the people in the photo, the photographer is also a picture within a picture.
The window serves as the picture frame from both sides.
Photo of the Day: Taken by Nicholas Tan Jiale, winner of “Best of Show (Student Category)”, for the third theme.

The third and final theme for Canon PhotoMarathon 2016 was: #NoFilter + #NewPerspective + #SPACE.
So it’s quite open to interpretation!

Guess who was the jogger in this photo?
It’s none other than the photographer himself!
When I chatted with Mark about the photo, he shared that he frequently went to that bridge to take photos – so when the third theme was announced, he immediately formed this image in his mind.
