SMALL WORLD, BIG ADVENTURE

Created by: Lee Dodd

1^st Place

What Lee Dodd says

Lost in a world of wonder, the boy sets sail on a leaf-boat, guided by the light of his tiny lamp.

What our jury says

Serhii Antropov: Amazing work with good fantasy world, composition and story.

Miho Aoki: It's a cute artwork that vividly portrays a child's imagination. The use of contrast within this image is excellent. The artist played with scales, and used contrasting colors of red and green, and light and darkness.

Tom Grimes: This image could be an illustration in a children's book or perhaps TV show - no need for realism here, but a focus on charm and wonder!

Samuel Winter: Nice composition, environment elements are done well, and good use of camera depth to frame the subject.

Title: An Unforgettable Adventure

Finally, the day arrived when I could immerse myself in the captivating underwater world. As I descended into the depths, I was astounded by the colorful fish, vibrant corals, and breathtaking formations. The beauty of this hidden realm left me speechless.

2^nd Place

What Deepak Jain says

Finally, the day arrived when I could immerse myself in the captivating underwater world. As I descended into the depths, I was astounded by the colorful fish, vibrant corals, and breathtaking formations. The beauty of this hidden realm left me speechless. It was an unforgettable adventure that words cannot fully capture, forever etched in my heart.

What our jury says

Samuel Winter: I like how the darker parts of the environment frame the lighter parts of the image, with a good amount of detail. Nice God Rays pouring in from the top contrast with the murky depths further back in the image.

Tom Grimes: Lots of detail, very realistic end result, and a great reminder that there is plenty left unexplored even here on our own planet!

Serhii Antropov: The execution and composition are good.

HUMANITY GONE

Created by: Petri Matikainen

3^rd Place

What Petri Matikainen says

What will replace us?

What our jury says

Frank WANG Yefeng: This is a fascinating and provocative image. It depicts a surreal scenario of a giant skeleton in ice, implying a past or future extinction of humanity. The details and lighting of the scene are very realistic and impressive, creating a sense of scale and depth. The image challenges us to question what will replace us and why, as well as the role and impact of technology on our existence.

Miho Aoki: This mysterious image shows a big frozen skeleton with plants growing from it, while a living person stands nearby. It's like a glimpse into a dark adventure, where time, the future, and the person's dreams intertwine. This artwork sparks our imagination and leaves us with more questions than answers.

Title: Harbinger

Created by Kay John Yim

Caption:

In a rugged and enchanted landscape, a legend speaks of a colossal dragon that appears each year with the arrival of spring and cherry blossoms. Its breath exudes a thick scent of ancient magic, giving rise to a dark and foreboding castle, with turrets and spires that pierce through the sky like jagged spears. Amidst this fantastical scene, an adventurer stands suspended in mid-air, her long, flowing gown billowing around her like mist. With determination etched upon her face, she levitates above the ground, ready to embark on a journey of mythical proportions. What wonders and dangers await her in this magical realm? Only time will tell.
