Mysteries Untold
Endless possibilities, unlimited perspectives. No need for words, no need for storytellers; the visions speak for themselves.

Human-free Photomanip Contest
The point of this contest is to convey a complex vision without using a human/animal model and human references, resorting only to inanimate matter and flora.
(Please see below for exceptions.)

Contest Rules
No human model stock allowed, neither as a whole nor as in part (hands, face, etc). It includes statues and other humanoid look-a-likes, i.e. angels, gods, etc. 'Stone' elements may be used as details.
No animal stock can be used in other manner than unimportant details.
