DMBLGIT February 2010 Winners

First of all, my apologies for the delay in posting the results. I should have posted them last week itself.

I feel that there were not many entries this time around for the event that were eye-catching and extremely impressive in the first glance. There were those that were heavily photo-shopped and some that had very visible flaws. But of course, as mentioned in the DMBLGIT announcement post, the ratings have been given on the Edibility, Originality and Aesthetics. I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed hosting this event, and would love to be a participate in many more of them in the future!

Apart from us at Snacksgiving, the other judges that participated in the event are

Andrew of and Spittoon and SpittoonExtra

Does My Blog Look Good In This is a monthly food photography event that is hosted by a different blogger every month. The administrator of the event is Andrew of and Spittoon and SpittoonExtra. It is open to all bloggers who have posted a photograph with a food or drink connection. Food bloggers submit their best photos from posts they completed during the previous month which are then judged and scored. Winners are made covering three categories (edibility, aesthetics, and originality) plus three overall winners.

Judging
The judges will review your entries on the basis of:

- Edibility: “Does the photo make us want to dive in and eat the food?”
- Originality: the photograph that catches our attention and makes us want to say wow!, displaying something we might not have seen before.
I will be announcing the judges in a separate post so stay tuned!!

From these categories, the judges will come up with:
