In this contest, we are working with a source photo.

It's a photo of a little bee having a rest on a flower. The photo won our single flower contest and was taken by Olga.L.

You can download a high resolution version of this photo here.

Be creative, and let's do some old-school photo manipulations!

Good luck!

PS: It's very important to vote on every entry, the more votes we get, the more accurate the rankings will be. Also, when you see something on someone's entry that can be improved, let them know. That way, we can learn new skills from each other!

PS 2: Ideas for future contests can be submitted here. The best ideas will be picked and turned into a contest. Make sure to clearly define the rules and objectives of the contest.

PS 3: You can not use any other digital photo manipulations as your source. The source images should be untouched photographs.
