The driftwood looks like the roots of a tree washed by the water, creating a successful fusion of formative beauty and a sense of nature. The shadows of the protruding stones look like the entrance to a cave, adding variety to the aquascape.

Best Aquarium Selection by Each Judge - Deep Connection - Joao Pinheiro / Portugal - IAPLC 2022

It is a Nature Aquarium style work with a large piece of driftwood as the main element. The ferns covering the driftwood and the dense foliage of Anubias and Cryptocoryne give a sense of the passage of time. The red floating leaves are also nice accents.

In addition, the use of brightly colored stem plants in the background creates an aquascape with depth and a sense of freedom.

[TheStoriesOfTop7] Place of origin - Zhemin Fan / China - IAPLC 2023

This year's Grand Prix was awarded to the work depicting the nature of a mountainous virgin forest. At first glance, the layout may seem plain, but the balance of the composition and the expression of perspective are excellent and combined with the expression of a sense of nature based on the muted green tones, it is an interesting work that is pleasant to look at and makes you feel as if you are actually in nature.
[TheStoriesOfTop7] Longing - Gang Zhao / China - IAPLC 2023

[TheStoriesOfTop7] Eternal - Josh Sim / Malaysia - IAPLC 2023

This work, with its impactful and unique driftwood, won the first Silver Prize. The gap between the small rocky peak at the far end and the large piece of driftwood boldly placed at the very front effectively expresses a sense of perspective.
