“This photo was taken at the Water Lantern Festival this past November. It was a special event not only because I was able to decorate and cast the lantern on to the lake, but it was shared experience with my family and friends.”
– Sharon Khaw, LADWP
Noelle’s comment: For all those reasons this is a winner, Sharon, and because it’s beautiful.
“I took this picture of my mom, Lynette Howlett, Retired, wandering in the Big Horse corn maze in Temecula.”
– James Howlett, Public Works/Sanitation
Noelle’s comment: Sounds like a maize maze! Well done, James!
“SoCal is known for sunsets. But it is hard to compete with a Los Angeles sunrise in December.”
– Monti Ramorino, LADWP
Noelle’s comment: We get to work pretty early in the morning at the Club, and I wholeheartedly agree on those sunrises. And I love how you surprised me with the buildings, and then the tree in the same shape. Clever!
“I snapped this photo of my beautiful wife as we celebrated her birthday this year!
– John Sousa, Airport Police
Noelle’s comment: I love the sparkler, and I’ve seen them before in photos. But the way it lit up her happy face is the difference-maker here. Excellent shot … and happy birthday to your wife!
“The picture says it all. The new bride is my wife’s niece who has been showcased in your previous Picture Perfect contests. Tears of joy everywhere. Everyone was very happy. Food and company were great. Open bar was icing on the cake!”
– Dominique Daito, LAPD
Noelle’s comment: I know you have submitted before, Dominique, and with photos like this one, you honor us by submitting. Another amazing photo.
