Holiday Challenge


The challenge

This is a challenge to see if you can create winter manipulations or paintings using non-wintery mandatory photos!

I have selected 9 stock photos from my gallery, the challenge is to use at least one of them (or several or all) in a photo manipulation or as reference for creating something themed "Winter". Anyhting that has to do with the winter season in any way is allowed. You have to include a small explanation of the winter themed work in the description underneath your work. As long as the explanation makes sense about why your picture is connected to winter (if it's not obvious in your image of course) it will be accepted as an entry. Use your imagination!


Judging

I'll be judging the entries mainly on how they impact on the viewer (in this case me obviously), meaning something that makes you go "wow" when you see it. I will also add extra positive points for entries that has followed all the rules without getting any remiders or corrections from me (so PLEASE read the rules properly before submitting) and for entries that also contains stock from any of my stock sisters; =steppelandstock, =inspyretash-stock and/or *LucieG-Stock

Any skill level is accepted so please join in no matter how much experience you have!!
