We are very pleased to announce that Boris Bort (B.Bort) from Russia won our prize competition for February with this beautiful photo. Adobe Romania will award him with a Photoshop CS3 license and Orthphoto will be keeping a set of his photos on the main page for two weeks.

As usual, we asked him to tell us something about himself and here is what interesting facts we found out: he is a 64 y. o. self employed entrepreneur/businessman. Besides photography, his hobbies include orienteering, backpacking/hiking and downhill skiing. His main camera is a Canon EOS 5D with different lenses. He won his first award as a photographer in the former USSR, back in 1977. This is what we call experience! His favorite theme in photography is Orthodox Christianity, especially architecture - basilicas, churches and monasteries. He is proud of being the
sole author and the publisher of "Orthodox Christian churches of Tula"
album, something that, why not, we would be genuinely interested in seeing.
His awarded picture has a co-author, Denis Aglichev, with whom he often works together and publishes the photos under nick name of B.Bort.

Congratulations, Boris, and thank you for being part of Orthphoto and bringing value to this project!
