MISS CAGAYAN DE ORO 2013

The third event was the bikini competition. This was held at N Hotel where the lovely Ami was both judge and host :-) None of your images here Ami but you do appear in the next gallery :-)

I decided to shoot from across the pool rather than where other photographers were located. I knew they would be obtaining plenty of "head on" images but I quite liked the idea of some views over the water, oblique and side views and also a better background too. I used a little fill flash to remove the daylight shadows but some of the images were taken in quick succession and the flash did not fire on all of those. Accordingly, some of the images are daylight lit only and not so good. Apologies for that but, of course, the girls look good anyway :-)

I did not take many group shots but, instead, focused on one contestant within the groups to add this to their individual collection of images. The intention here was to make each contestant stand out from the rest - as the eventual winner will do of course! We just do not yet know which one that will be!

I hope you enjoy these 13 images of each pretty girl - especially if you are one of them! :-)

ENJOY!

Peter :-)
