Judges' Comments
The variety of colours is pleasing. Well-balanced composition.

Magnífico trabajo. Que bonita piedra, me he enamorado de ella!...viendo la foto del hardscape da pena que se hayan perdido algunos elementos en la foto final, pero no resta belleza al resultado. Con un plantado sano y proporcional, para mi este montaje lo reúne todo. Muy bajo se han quedado los peces, pero bueno...Enhorabuena.
Translation:
Magnificent work. What a beautiful stone, I've fallen in love with it!... Looking at the hardscape photo, it's a shame that some elements were lost in the final photo, but it doesn't take away from the beauty of the result. With healthy and proportional planting, for me this setup has it all. The fish stayed very low, but well... Congratulations.
