Wonders of Winter | LET'S MAKE A COLLAGE: ROUND #105

Hello everyone and welcome back to Let's Make a Collage ("LMAC"). Hope you had a wonderful holiday. For this week's collages, we have a lovely winter scene to work with. I was inspired to create three different themes to depict the events in the winter season. To create the settings, 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 105 - ✨177 HIVE in the Prize Pool!✨

COLLAGE #1: Swan in Snow

My first theme I want to share pictures a group of penquins who encounters a beautiful swan. For the background, I located a lovely swan image. The background looks magical. I drew inspiration for the theme from my newly-designed fractal art piece that resembles a star. The fractal contains the same colors as the background image for the swan.

I uploaded both the contest photo and the above images into Canva to complete my collage with my Annual Pro Membership Subscription.

• Swan at PxFuel

• Lighthouse Contributed to the #LIL by @donroberts

• Penguins Contributed to the #LIL by @attom1515

• Fractal image of star created by me in Apophysis 2.09

COLLAGE #2: The Snow Maker

My second theme was fun to make as I watched a giant sifter bring snow for skiers' and onlookers' enjoyment.

Again, I uploaded all images into Canva and complied the collage. I like the image for the sifter as though it's producing the snow.

Below are images for this collage version:

• Skiers in Snow at PxFuel

• Onlookers with cameras at PxFuel

• Cable car by maja7777 at Pixabay

• Owl Contributed to the #LIL by @seckorama

COLLAGE #3: Winter Princess

My inspiration for this third collage was my fractal art design that resembled wings. I wanted a theme that represented the magic of winter without the typical winter scene.

I filtered the original contest photo to depict a more lush green scene that still held magical qualities. I utilized the following images in Canva:
