Hi Brian, I wanted to show an old posting I did here in 2013 because their are a lot of new people here who weren't here then. The only thing I wanted to change was in editing was my writer's notes. I did that, clicked on save and discovered my mage had vanished. I already had promoted the piece before I discovered that. I looked desperately in my files to find the image so I had a picture to show. I found the image there but am not sure if it was the original I originally posted. Sometimes I save more than one of the same image and improve it after it's saved. Now I'm afraid to post past images unless it's in my email box.
This image was made up of three different children who were originally riding ponies. It's also made of one one walking heron that I made three copies of. I also included a new background. You might say it's wierd but I had fun creating something a little different. :o) I don't expect you to like everything I do, so it's ok if you don't like the vision I created. :o) I hope this explains how this was put together and the trouble had trying to re-post the image!
Thanks for reviewing and sharing your thoughts! :o) Nancy

This is such a fun image of children riding Great Blue Herons, looking as though they are ready for a race. Your creativity shows once again!.

An extraordinaire scene of these three girls riding with these gigantic herons. I like your imagination. The subjects are well-arranged in the frame. The tall heron and those tall trees in the woods fits well in the vertical frame. I also like the walking trail and the stone that you have included. The mixed media aspect was well executed. Nance, this is like a scene from a fantasy movie and is surely an artwork with a story to tell. High on originality and creativity.
All the best in this contest!

Ha, Ha, made me stop and look twice! Certainly a very apt image for the contest. Good Luck with that. I like your manipulation, using various images and software. Personally I would alter one of the birds in the foreground. Either the one with the girl in pink or the one with the girl in turquoise. I say this because basically these are the same and this tells me what you have done. Obviously FAR members will realise how you did this, but just make it no so obvious. If you changed the one foot for example or the bird's height or something like that, it would make a difference. Easy to do.
