We might be running the risk of burnout, but we went to Let's Play on Sunday for the Let's Cosplay event, where I discovered an important rule:
If you can't control the subject of the photograph, do not use the filters. They bugger up your focusing.
But anyway, it being a small event, I actually have everyone's descriptions (except one), so here we go:
Sepia, as befitting an extremely old-school character:

Cosplayer: Adam Rick Taylor.
Character: Axel Stone, Streets of Rage
Death from above:

Cosplayer: Tachibana Tsuki
Character:??? from Advancing Titans
Corrupt executive brought to a whole new level:

Cosplayer: Barry Ouyang (second place)
Character: Wesker, Resident Evil. I told him he had to shop in his own eyeglow later.

Cosplayer: Ren Tatsuya
Character: ??? from My only scientific Railgun (I think)
Note for the next two: There is a subset of cosplay called Gijinka, which is anthromorphic representations of non-human characters.

Cosplayer: Dempster Riksa Lee
Character: Sonic (Anthromorphic-type)

Cosplayer: Tinneh Tastethenutella
Character: Tony Chopper from One Piece.
Third place:

Cosplayer: Flourite Roses
Character: ???

Cosplayer: Orion
Character:???from Assassin's Creed
Champion:

Cosplayer: Iwasaka Miyuki
Character: Alisa Boskonovitch, from Tekken

This is Maverick Villenguez. He is one of the judges. We are trying to figure out what is the worst possible caption we can give him for this photo.
Note: The picture below is a man.

Cosplayer: Eugene Colloneko Sama
Character: ??? from RWBY (I think)

Cosplayer: Kairei Chan
Character: Shanoa, from Castlevania

After the contest things got silly:

Sonic, losing and desperately grabbing for his rings.
We felt that this picture did not sufficiently emphasise the dynamic aspect of the portrayal.
Ok, what actually happened was that I ran off and changed my lens just to make your eyes bleed:

I, er, got bored with just taking photos:

I reiterate: The filters ruined a lot of perfectly good shots. My bad.

Of course, Caffeine and I went in cosplay as well, although we didn't compete:
The photos below are by Sam Tan and Simply Amazing Memories:
