Judges' Comments
I really like this work. Unfortunately, it was let down by the final photo, which was not properly cropped. Although the aquarium is very well crafted, with great attention to detail and fish placement, the final presentation does not do it justice. I would also recommend paying more attention to the front line of the sand. Overall, however, this is undoubtedly a noteworthy piece of work!
