FEBRUARY CONTEST: NIGHTFALL

[sandraeide]

After being a svs member for about a half year I decided to finally submit to a contest. Hopefully it isn't too blurry as I had to compress the image down a lot to fit the requirements. How do you all compress without losing quality?

@jdubz This is great! I can feel the warm water, maybe on a summer night, and sense how much fun the kids are having. It reminds me of my childhood when we had been traveling in the car all day and couldn't wait to get to the hotel and swim in the pool.

I love seeing everyone's unique take on "Nightfall" This is my first entry on SVS, and I thoroughly enjoyed incorporating some of my roots in this piece, including Lake Superior's "Sleeping Giant".
