#1. 1st Place: "Local Trees" by Dominik Gottwald, Germany
"The last months a lot of trees in my community disappeared. So I took some large format photos of local trees. This is part of a growing series. Just for fun i do the scouting and shooting by bike. At the end it fits the topic quite well i think. The film is an japanese rice paper with some emulsion on it."
#2. 2nd Place: "The Way to The North" by Enrico Curti, Norway
"Norway is characterized of a wild and rugged nature, from the sunnier coast of the South to the moody cold of the North. What I particularly love of this country is indeed the dramatic atmosphere you get: majestic peaks towering straight out of the sea, dark low clouds followed by stormy winds, powerful waves battering the coast line. With these images I try to transmit a bit of the feeling I have when I spend some time in the outdoor, surrounded by some of the greatest nature of the world."
