Puss in Boot by Goodbye-kitty975 Puss in Boot by Goodbye-kitty975
Iluvbiscuit2:This piece is amazing and unique to me because of the country effect that it gives even though it might have been taken in the kitchen. The colour and the placing of the subjects are outstanding!


Purple throated carib by WendyMitchell Purple throated carib   by WendyMitchell
lluvia-estival : The colours in this piece are just incredible - it looks like a complete rainbow posted into one picture. However, one can still see the bird clearly, it does not get lost in between. The picture does not have so many details like feathers or complex structures, but this piece is a real eye-candy, it is so lovely to look at and definately catches the eyes. It was done by an artist that deserves more attention and is getting honored with this little gesture for being very active in our group!


Snow Leopard 14 by catman-suha Snow Leopard 14  by catman-suha
PiTurianer : for me one of the best photographers and the image is just outstanding!


Luv luv luv IV by Eltasia Luv luv luv IV   by Eltasia
AnnemiekedW : I luv this photograph, it's great to see such fierce animals be so affectionate towards each other :heart:

Forest's Benefaction - Pileated Woodpeckers by Nambroth Forest's Benefaction - Pileated Woodpeckers   by Nambroth
SilkenWinds :wow:: I am so amazed and wowed by this painting! The details are astounding, the colors are crisp, and the overall look is so realistic and smooth.  I also like the composition and the artist obviously spent some time on those details.  Great overall! :clap:
