Students clamor for collectible rubber ducks, the signature souvenir tossed to participants during UCF's Spirit Splash. The popular homecoming tradition is the only time Knights are allowed access into the Reflecting Pond, an iconic fountain on campus. The annual event is a wet and wild pep rally that leads up to the homecoming football game.
From the Judges' Report
This is just a fun, vibrant photo that fully captured the essence of an event and that was executed extremely well. We loved the emphasis on the desire for the duckies, rather than on students getting them and the interactivity it prompts in the viewer to find the one in the picture.
Our judges said: “Great use of wide angle.” “Good layers and expressions.” “Attention-grabbing, nice depth of field. I want to be there.” “Great spirit and interesting composition.”
