Evaluation:
The first Silver Prize winner is from Russia, and the layout is an image of Russian forest. In this year’s contest, we received many layout with an image of forest, due to the influence of last year’s grand prize winning layout, but this layout shows the highest level of completion. Here the creator expressed a deep natural feeling by rugged bark textures and greens of plants. He also skillfully arranged various sizes of trees, sometimes in inclined position, and succeeded to emphasize a perspective in the open space in the central part. The position of fish at a time of shooting picture was also good.
