Greetings Steemians!
As followers of my blog you may have noticed that I enjoy creating collages. Since we have such a large number of great artists and creatives here on Steem, it occurred to me that it might be a fun experience to create such a collage as part of a community contest.
So shall we try this?
What do you see in this photography that is not yet there? An approaching thunderstorm? A dragon, that rises from behind the cliff? A mermaid lying on that rock? A plesiosaurus emerging from the depths of the ocean?
(click here for high-res version)
Let your creativity run wild and transform the image into whatever you want to see. Your imagination is the only limit (and the tools that you can command).

Photo recorded by myself with a Canon EOS 7D.

I prefer foggy night with clear sky, so I created this. :D
I used my photo of milky way that I have took last summer to create this.
The community has decided: you are the WINNER of this contest!! And I find that very well deserved!

Thank you and I'm really glad that community liked it. Next contests, here I come. :-D
Damn, thats a good one! Awesome work dude!
Thank you very much! :-D
Wow, looks awesome! Thank you for your submission and good luck with the contest!
So, I will also give it a try :-)
Nothing special, just a collage. My skills need a lot of improvement :-D
But here it is anyway.
The title is "Rise of the Blood Moon"
The Moon is from me and the sky also. The sky hasn't been published yet.
Impressive! Thanks for your submission and good luck with the contest!
Thank you very much @shaka
May the best win 😊
I’m very curious about what collages will be created here.
👏 Congratulations Kevin, your submission wins in my personal favorite - category!
Enjoy a 100% upvote and the 5 SBD that you will receive in an instant!
I hope to see you joining the next contest again!
Thank you so much @shaka :-)
Awesome, I had never expected this :-)
For sure, I'm excited about the next one :-)
I would add some light pollution that Moon is making. Jk, it looks nice. :D
Thank you for the suggestion. I've tried to do this but it looked horrible after that. Also, my try to make the moon and the Pleiades reflect a little bit in the water... a desaster :-D
Haha that was fun @shaka! I guess even 3-year olds are better than me in collage making but I wanted to participate anyway so here is my "masterpiece" :D
You inspired me with the idea of a dragon rising from above the rocks so I used my close-up shot of a Mexican iguana I took last year :) Here is the original photo:
Brilliant @phortun
Thanks :D
Thanks again for your great contribution @phortun.
I hope to see you joining the next contest again!
Cheers!
;D
The colors and the texture fits nicely with the rock's. Thanks for your submission and good luck!
Thanks you. I think the pose of the iguana was just perfect for creating the impression of creeping from behing the rocks but I just have literally no experience with collage making. I didn´t even know what program I should use so I went for the very basic "Painting" program in my Windows :D I am sure you would create a very interesting piece out of these two shots. Feel free to try that if you want :) I can upload the original iguana shot in full resolution somewhere for you.
Hi,
sorry, no Monster and no Mermaid ... I saw a Thunderstorm and a Wave and then I finaly had to add a curious Seagull ;)

Resteemed of course - I tried now and was naive to think it could be a good one for me - but failed and realised my skills for graphics are not existent but still try to show some trials lol
Thanks for the fun collage idea - like these things and I am sure it brings people together.

Here is my creation ☺
In the image of @shaka, there is a pleasant climate with clear sky and calm water.
In the image created by me there is a ship in the water and accidentally climate is changed. There is a storm coming and lightening in the sky. 🌊🌪⚡

Thanks you for your imaginative contribution @karishmasingh711.

I saw a huge plesiosaurus emerging from the sea and the sand type stone looks the hump of plesiosaurus...To beautify the landscape I used foggy mountains to represent the month of December and due to December, plesiosaurus returning to sea after taking sun bath...

Thanks for your submission, but the idea was to use the photo that I had provided in the post as template for a collage, not to submit another photo.
I hope to see you try again in the next contest!
Cool initiative, @shaka. Reposted!
Thank you!
Hi there,
I've just upvoted this post
A small contribution from me, to help the steem community to thrive ;)
i see an angel in the sky.....
nice post....all of you,have fun..
This is going to be a great fun.
I hope so!
Such a fun idea @shaka! I will have to print it and paint by hand. That is my speciality! I.T. is N.O.T ;) I can see any number of era type scenes. Medieval festival or Sinbad type pirates and treasure island or a more modern day Greek isle type with dainty boats and white village cottages.....
Can't wait to see your hand painted submission:)
I see the water moving to the left. The clouds are moving to the right. I see the house and can only imagine the enchanting landscape behind the rocks. I would be interested to see how the land behind the rocks looks like.
Einen schönen Nikolaustag :-)
Danke, auch dir einen schönen Nikolaustag!
I see a flying horse with the prince and princess on it .!!
