Thank you so much! I had such a hard time finding the right hollowed trunk/branch... lol.

Ah, yes, that 's the word. I thought of cave, but hollow is a better word. In dutch we have the word "hol" for hollow, and the word is sometimes used for the space in a cave as well

Ah, I see. Don't worry, I wasn't upset - like I said, my man thought it was a cave, the first time I showed it to him, and I must admit that it looks a little bit too much like a cave. LOL!

Creativity is shown here. Such a nice cave made out of that stock, I really like the view outside. I think the addition of the feathers gives it a magic touch, it is like you created a "fairy-lair"

Thank you! You're the second person who told me it looks like a cave - my fiance was the first. It's a hollow in a branch or trunk - or that's what it's supposed to be... Oh well. lol. I kind of like the name, "fairy-lair", by the way.

Thank you!! I've been looking at all the photomanips - one of the good things about contests is that they make people more daring.

Thank you!! I like a challenge every now and then - I like to challenge myself to work with stocks that I haven't chosen, to follow the rules when I would have tried something else (like, with this one, try to change the color of her wings or clothes, or change her wings, add more magic, lol). When I can't do everything I would like to do, I have to find other ways to end up with a photomanip that I'm as satisfied with as can be - and it does me a lot of good!
Thank you again... it means a lot to me.

Don't we all enjoy what we're doing? I'm not always 100 % satisfied, I have a lot to (re)learn... but I enjoy what I'm doing.

Of course we all love what we do... Sometimes it's hard to explain what I think when I use a language that is not mine... my english is very bad I meant to have to work following the rules of the challenge

ElissandrAnne In reply to EstherPuche-Art [2013-01-25 21:33:15 +0000 UTC]

Sorry... English is not my native language either. lol. I sometimes like to follow rules because it makes it harder - am I making any sense? So, yeah, you can say I enjoy it.

I understand what you mean... sometimes following the rules is the real challenge for yourself
