I agree with you Alessandro, definitely one of your very best 'expert editing' entry. The concept is very interesting, and there are many ways to look at it, which lets the viewer imagine himself in that situation. Congratulations on the HM.

Samantha, I really find amusing how we both arrived at the same conclusion: indoor setup for reproducibility and lighting control, black & white in order to minimize color management problems. I also like the fact you included some "uncontrolled" flying elements. I am quite surprised about your score though, I would have rated it much higher! Congratulations on the top 10 anyway.

What a unique sight! Congrats on your ribbon. I really wonder what that person had in mind when aligning all these plates. Any clue?

Congratulations Damian on your ribbon. Photographing bubbles was definitely a clever choice for a minimal challenge. Perfect execution as well.
