A special thanks to friend and professional photographer Vitaliy Zalishchyker for his collaboration as a guest judge: "My name is Vitaliy. I was born in Kolomyia, Ukraine. I studied at National State University i.n. V.Stefanyk, Ukraine and ended with a B.A. in Psychology. I always wanted to be a photographer. Since I was 10, I used film photos with my old Zenith E11 which even now I shoot with it. So in the year 2007, I decided to go freelance in photography. After some harsh years of practice I started studying "Foto-design" at ILS Hamburg, Germany. I'm always looking to capture stylish people and unique situations."
