      Every month the quality of the entries get better! I will probably never win one of these things, but good work everyone! You are all too good...Maybe SVS should just start publishing books. Here is my losing submission πŸ™‚

        @Melissa-Bailey-0 Thank you Melissa πŸ™‚ I love the color palette of your work, the perspective and how you frame it with leaves. The acorn bomb is really genius!

                    @Coreyartus I think this is my favorite. I love the colors and the feeling that is portrayed by the wolf being integrated into the trees!

                              @Melissa-Bailey-0 thank you. I enjoyed making this but I still have a lot to learn regarding full scenes. I love yours too.

                                  @lizardillo thanks so much! You did such a great job composing this scene -- can't wait to see where you go from here, if you're just getting started with full scenes!

                                    Thank you @lizardillo ! I'm so glad it comes across - it took me a long time to get to a point where I was happy with it! It was quite a learning curve for me ☺ Loving your bee in his 'sticky' situation. πŸ˜„ I can almost hear the buzz of those hornets!

                                          Congrats to the winners. That was cool. I wish they would have critiqued mine so I would know how to improve it.

                                            Right? Me too, and I was sooo close, but there was something warmonger with the file and they couldn’t open my image, I was putting lids to sleep, other wise I would be screaming... but it was great learning experience nevertheless. πŸ™‚
