Nice image author...Few minor nit picks...U have to remove typing from the image...Crediting of the author of background is enough in your description...Also in high resolution is visible masking problem around bear/elephant front right foot...This is minor thing but work would be better if u clear that...best of luck

Thank you for bringing it to my attention. I tried to clean it up.

very nice image!

nice work on the animals -- just wonder if a shadow for the tree would be appropriate

interesting idea

VERY GOOD

Fantastic entry author...this goes instantly to my favorites...

SPELLING ERROR ALERT... Friends... not FRIENS (beautiful piece.. so much life and happiness

EDIT: Perfect.. and great job!!!

Amazing! Reminds of primitive art

Pretty nice work, but the background is too intense & distracts from your work in the foreground, which is very good.

LOL, thanks Golem... err Drivenslush, now fixed @CMYK: I tried darker combinations but finally I like this one.

Too bad...reds in foreground, reds in backgound...kills depth.

This is a great gestural piece, but I agree that the background could be adjusted to bring out your characters.just a bit. I would like to see the "head" on the left a tad larger and higher up for symmetry.

very nice work didnt expect it was u

I love this piece; it has a lot of character and expression! Especially because there's a sense of joy and celebration. Great work!

Awesome use of source and I like the background very much it looks like a sunset.

@Anna: the head looks better now, thank you very much for comments and happy new year to all cheers
