As always it's been really fun. Thank you again ESFI for getting me there and allowing me to experience the awesomeness of MLG National Championships. :D
I'm really happy for Leenock! Congratulations yet again~ His 6pool vs NaDa match was one of the first SC2 vods I'd watched and it left such an impression haha. I made a cheerful for him when I saw him play at the GSL in June this year, then somehow ended up being able to help him out this MLG and then watch him win. It's like things have come a full circle and it's a somewhat intriguing feeling.
In any case, it's been a great year and I'm really happy that I got to meet so many super awesome people. Thank you all for being so kind <3 (extra thank yous for the shirts, steak and mice haha XD) I'm going back to Singapore after NASL and I guess I'll see some of you at the event, but if I don't, I hope and am sure we'll meet again some day.
You guys are all epicly awesome, please keep doing what you're doing.
PS on usage: Please feel free to share the photos with the rest of the community, but please don't crop my watermark away and do credit me if you use them in any articles. Thank you~

I like your photo's jingna
|
I always look forward to seeing jingna's photos from these events. Awesome as always! -tys
|
Really good photos.
May I ask what camera+lenses youre using?
|
Best photographer ever.
Seriously, I love these shots.
|
Wow, cant believe how good these photos are.
Great work.
Some pros should consider using these photos for their sites / team sites, as the photos there are often not that good.
|
Jinro is such a badass it's awesome!
|
Could I borrow a couple of these to use in a presentation about E-Sports for an ethnography project in my anthropology course? Proper photo credit would be given.
|
Very nice photos! TLOs beard is looking better and better
|
|
|
nice photos. crazy to see the amount of people watching a featured station match while the main stage is still full.
|
Great pictures! I wish I could have been there!
|
I'm convinced Leenock is actually July's clone. >_>
|
Always the best photos from SC2 events.
dat murloc pic
|
naniwa shot is awesome
You can literally see his thoughts: "holy shit I have just solved this game"
|
|
|
Always the best pictures, I was standing right behind you as you were taking the pictures at front center right after Leenock won. Great job
|
Very nice photos. Keep up the good work!
|
These pictures are amazing!
Great job! 10/10
|
Great pictures, leenock such a cutie.
I couldn't find a picture of MMA 
|
Yay I'm in a couple of these pictures (Leenock's sad face vs. Oz and Hapyro vs. MVP from above)
|
Really great shots, thanks for posting this! (I wish there were a few more crowd shots of Sat/Sun because I wanted to find myself T.T but nevertheless, great job)

Best photos ever, thank you for using your talent to make esports even better <3
|
Thank you so much.
Amazing pictures
|
We're lucky to have you! I think my favourites are the shots of Puzzle, SeleCT and sC
|
Leenock holding the trophy half the size of him lol
Great photos!
|
Bomber is forever Mr. pouty face and Losira appears to have highlights in his hair now? Speaking of hair Hero's is perfect like 99.9 % of the time, he's magic or something. Lovely photos ^-^.
|
Fantastic work as always.
It was great working with you again Jingna. I hope we meet again.

zemotions always has the best pictures.

You should see Ryung o.O
For some reason that "WE NEED MORE CHAIRS" sign pushed all the way to the back in one of the pictures cracked me up.
|
Nice!
Is it just me or does Leenock look like JulyZerg -.-
Naniwa has his super serious face
|
great photos
now i know why huk said that thing about how the photographers from esfi should be more proffessional. trololololing hehe
|
The last pic of leenock holding the trophy is the best!!!
|
|
|
Best esports photographer ever?
|
Hey, I can see the top of my head from here!
|
I think my favourite is the one of JP.... I like that guy.
|
Wonderful photos! saw you walking around taking them at Providence. ^^
|
Great pictures, looked through every one :D
...Speaking of which, does TLO's right eyebrow freak anyone else out? It's damn near blown my mind.

Oh Starcraft 2 community, why you look so good? (;

Anyone see a resemblence between Leenock and JulyZerg?
They both have good macro games, but they both have good all ins
and they ALMOST look the same

It's generally accepted that the age line goes this way.
July > Gumiho > Leenock
Seriously, go compare Leenock to Gumiho, they look even more similar.

I think my favorite thing about these pictures is the new StarTale Jacket, It's actually awesome looking, I want one.
Great job with all the pictures! They look fantastic as always!
|
Great photos, didn't realize the trophy was that big. Looks pretty baller.
|
Jinro looks so badass with that hair and beard, and damn flo are so cute!

great pics, I love the expressions captured on some of those.
|
So shiny.
By the way, has there ever been a korean player sporting a proper beard of some sort? And not just some fluff. The thought just crossed my mind with all the western players doing something with their facial hair one way or another.
|
You mean,
SeleCT attempts a photo of me, SON!
That guy!
Good pix again Jingna, keep 'em up!
|

|
Really nice pictures! The one with Leenock making a sad face is great.

Impossible. All those pictures and not one shot of Hot_Bid in the background.
|
Holy shit TLO's beard looks good.
|
Haypro looking pretty damn handsome
|
NICE PICTURES!!!
Wow... the MVP vs Haypro had A HUGE CrOWD >_< too bad it wasn't on main stage
|
If it would'nt be much of a problem could you add the korean names/ American names of the players next to their photos, as well as their nicknames? Great pics nonetheless, very high quality photography went on.

Thank you everyone!

Of course with you winning awards left and right, I imagine finding time for touch-up has become tougher.

I saw you around about taking photos. Very nice job.

Thanks for the photos, they're really nice (:

Jinro looks like such a boss in that photo.

Amazing pictures, great job. <3
