A basalt rock formation I photo'd, brusheezy.com rooster (doubled, in multiply blend mode and color change), Adobe stock ladder (that I painted), two dragons provided by a Facebook photo group with March theme of "Year of the Dragon." Topaz Studio 2 filter.

Feedback welcomed!

Sorry Linda, I’m not feeling it. Too busy for my taste. Perhaps change the dragon color would make it stand out more. Giving it a bit of a distinctive look.

Beautiful Linda. I spent a while finding everything, I think. Where is Stella?

Strange at first the dragon was not obvious, because my focusing on the look-at-me rooster. Once seen, the dragon can not be unseen. Perhaps the chicken and ladder should be more in tune with the wonderful swam of unclearness pattering of the rest of the photo.

Stella, had the good sense to stay away from the dragon or be out of site ready to pounce on the back of the dragon's neck for a quick kill... then she would have dragged the cooked chicken home to share the meal with you Linda.

Nice to think Stella might actually want to share something with me besides sleepless nights.

Interesting point about the ladder and rooster being the clearest, especially after I just wrote to Frank that my intention was to keep Parent Dragon - and all - somewhat less than obvious. Appreciate the feedback!

Very masterful illustration...it held my attention until I found everything...at least I think I did! Maybe a slight change of tone between setting and objects might make for quicker identification, but I loved the search!

Thank you so much, Veronica. I didn't really want to make discovery easier, but I should do something to make them all the same (Frank's and Don's comments).

This is definitely an attention getter. Took me a while to take it all in!

I like the yellow guy holding up the ladder for the rooster. That section caught my eye first as well. I too had to search a tiny bit for the dragon and like Don said, once it is seen it cannot be unseen. Unusual creation to be sure. I can’t say I love it but I like to look at how it has been created.

Your thoughtful comments, and your willingness to spend time with an image, are much appreciated, Ellen!
