I'm back with my Let's Make a Collage ("LMAC") contribution. This will be my 13th contribution to the LMAC Information Library (LIL). I'm not participating in the LMAC Round 125 with a collage as an entry. Rather, I decided to create a complimentary collage to accompany my contribution. I was inspired by the fallen tree in the contest photo.
To create the setting, I started with the photograph provided by @shaka in his contest post: Let's Make a Collage - A Contest for All Creatives on Hive - Round 125 - ✨234 HIVE in the Prize Pool!

COLLAGE: Reading By Forest Light
I located a lovely free photo depicting a lady and her daughter in the forest reading by lamplight. It was an intriguing photo by itself. However, I decided they needed more light by which to read their favorite nighttime stories. Also another daughter wouldn't hurt. I then decided that the children didn't have a sturdy bench. I noticed there weren't any tree limbs in the photo, so thought the broken tree in the contest photo would be perfect as a table to place their reading material and additional source of light.

To create the collage, I uploaded the contest photo and all images into Canva. Utilizing my Annual Pro Membership Subscription, I can blend them into a suitable scene for my collage theme.
Below are the images I included in my theme:

awesome collage looks cool i like the lights. Just wondering where is the main image? Its fun sometimes trying to find it in all the collages they are so unique
I'm happy you liked my theme. I scour through numerous free sites to find unusual backgrounds or items to include in my themes. In my post, I explained that I only used the broken tree limb and that I used it for a table to hold various items. I turned it upside down, lol.
Thanks so much for visiting and searching for the contest image. Sometimes if you can't find it, and I encounter it numerous times, I'll read the member's post to see what they did. With the numerous filters available, it's hard.
I appreciate your support.
ooohh very creative I see it now makes people think and Seach very good strategy keep us engaged let see if you can find me in my collage? lol

OMG...too stressful. Why put me under such pressure :) I like your theme and commented on your post just now. It's a bit hard to figure out which guy is you. I'm a bit skeptical because you know what those UFO's can do to you once you've been abducted. You may have been sent back and disguised. Can't be too careful!
Thanks for sharing. That gave me a laugh. Take care.
I usually use your fractals for my collages. These creations of yours give mine a special touch, just like someone as talented as you could do. Indeed, this new collage is a big proof of how your talent stands for itself.
Thanks and keep up the good work :)
Hello @gabmr. Oh my, I thank you for your kind words. I'm happy you like my collage themes. I appreciate the fact that you include some of my fractals in your collages. Your support is truly awesome. I love that LMAC members see fit to use my images. I like how you all transform them into wonders that I don't think of.
When I see the images, I'm amazed at their potential in the right hands. It's as if my images are molded and stretched in an entirely new way. One time, a member took an image, turned it upside down, and utilized it as a chair in the air.
I try to visit lots of other members' collages. If I haven't visited yours, I'll try to in the next day or so.
Take care, and have a good start to your week.

You know I have always wondered what making a collage meant..... I didn't really get it until I read this.
If I am not wrong, creating a collage means trying to add additional objects, people, or animals to an original photo in order to give it more meanings right?
You did great with your contribution to the theme photo though. I love the idea of giving them an additional daughter more because I have never met a single child who didn't crave the presence of a sibling... Hehehehe.
Hello @iskafan. Thanks so much for stopping by. You are correct. What you're trying to accomplish is a complete image of a theme you want to share. What I like about collage designing is that you can use all of parts of a photo, then add to it to enhance or completely change what the original photo image suggested.
I appreciate your kind words. I'm happy you liked that I added an additional daughter. I also appreciate your support.
Take care, and have a good rest of your week.
