Firstly we would like to apologize for the delay of the Nendonesia PhotoCon #2‘s finalists announcement. It was initially planned for Monday, and then got pushed into Wednesday (or Thursday on GMT+7).

Well then, the top 10 entries have been chosen out of 77 participating photo entries in the Qualifying Round. For any of you whose entries did not make it into the Final Round … well, don’t let it make you down. You may participate again in our next photocon. ^^

In any case, kindly scroll past the break to view Top 10 Finalists of Nendonesia PhotoCon #2. ^^

Update: Comment section is closed for some reason.
Anyway, for you who feel that some entries do not appear to qualify as finalists, well, we could only say that the photo theme and concept weights much more than technical aspects of the entries. The reason behind this score weighting is related to the camera – which is a mere mobile phone camera, not a full fledged DSLR. That’s it! ^^

So … here are the list of the top 10 finalists, in no particular order.

As Mr. Owner’s favorite Nendo, Miku take initiative to leave him a message on his breakfast, but suddenly little petit Miku run towards her and accidentally fell into the bread, thus ruining the message before it’s even finished.

Well then, that is the finalists on Nendonesia PhotoCon #2. Now, it is your turn to choose your most favorite 3 entries out of these 10 … and it will also be accounted for deciding the winners!

No, we have decided not to use Facebook and/or DeviantArt for the poll, but instead rely on our own poll system. Here is the poll:

We know that there are some of you who are concerned about the fairness of the poll system. Rest assurred, Nendonesian, as we make sure that the judge’s votes will have more “weight” toward the final scoring. ^^

Anyway, the vote will end on Wednesday, August 17th, 23:59 (GMT+7) – yes, that is about a week from now. May the best photo win! ^^
