The contest attracted over 1,000 photo submissions, with more than 600 entries from professionals and over 400 from amateur photographers. Following expert evaluation, the professional category awarded one first prize, three second prizes, five third prizes, 15 excellence awards, and 30 finalist awards. The amateur category recognized one first prize, three second prizes, five third prizes, 15 excellence awards, and 30 finalist awards.
