Greetings Steemians!

The entries for the last Let's make a collage contest exceeded all my expectations! I was absolutely overwhelmed by the creativity and skill that went into your submissions. I knew that we have quite a number of highly talented artists in our community yet I didn't expect to reach so many with this contest.

It really was a tough call to decide on the winners. But before announcing them I would like to thank every participant for making the effort of contributing. In the end, it is the sum of all submissions that make up the value of this competition.

Now, before we go into the next round join me in applauding the winners of last week's challenge:👏👏👏

First place 5 SBD 100% upvote	@bronkong
Second place 2 SBD 50% upvote	@li-art
Third place 1 SBD 25% upvote	@georgeboya
Original image	@shaka

Thank you for these remarkable artworks!

So let's do this again!

What do you see in this photography that is not yet there? A dragon's lair? The tower of an evil sorcerer? Or Santa Claus' main distribution site?

Let your creativity run wild and transform the image into whatever you want to see. Your imagination is the only limit (and the tools that you can command).

Prizes

📌To decide on the winners I will this time compile a shortlist of finalists and let the community have the final say in a dPoll!
