Mr. Minoru Yamagashi (Japan)
Title: Lingering Snow
Evaluation: From the planting of ferns among the space of Seiryu Stone, and the use of pure white sand, we believed that the creator was trying to make use of the layout material and aquatic plant characteristics, and seek a new way of expression. Unique natural feeling is expressed here. The concept of the layout is clear, and due to the use of limited number and color of aquatic plants, the layout itself became to have more impact.
His Comment: This was my first contest. I am very glad to have received such a prize this time, and I am sharing this joy with my family and friends. I created this layout with an image of Mt. Yorikura in Okuhida, located in the border between Gifu and Nagano prefecture. I spread Rio Negro Sand on top of boldly arranged Seiryu-stone with an image of remaining snow, and set Bolbitis as an image of creeping pine, which endured the winter season. I wish to make a new layout for next year?s contest with a fresh feeling with my friends.
