FinishedThe objective of the photographic contest is to demonstrate how the water is a primary resource for life and, for this reason, frequently it’s been forgone in our daily existence. With the contest we want to revive the awareness of the "water" as a treasure compared to the oil. Moreover our hope is to propose original and evocative images of water that can demonstrate this element in its dynamic essence and primitive beauty.
