Judges comment: The use of a portrait format to exploit the drama of falling water has been successfully used by the photographer in this piece. The 'steps' from top right that move our gaze down and across the composition and finally to the foaming pool inject a beautifully lyrical note. It is almost monochrome in its treatment and I see that as a positive thing. However, 1 think a touch more sharpness in the stone fa~ade to the left of the falling water would have added a little more drama.
