Close Encounter

All the night creatures had seen the strange lights in the sky and the noiseless craft that had briefly touched down by the edge of the water. Many had run in fear to hide in the depths of the forest but one Snow Leopard was far too interested in the small embryo being who now floated on the surface of the lake. Inching forward in the darkness, he came closer, until the glow illuminated his face.......

Yes, I'm away in my world of fantasy again!! :wink: :roll:

May I join you in your fantasy? :wink:

Yes, curiosity would drive the cat to danger, but it so deep in his nature, it can't be helped. This is totally fascinating and up there in the list of favorites. Your best work comes when you let fantasy take over, sister :mrgreen:

You make me proud :!:

:shock: :shock: Now this is extraordinary. Gone all weak at the knees now Carol. As close to perfect as you can get. 12 out of 10, now that ain't bad M8tess :wink: beautiful vertical, smooth clean graduation, ripples can't be faulted !!!! and the colours are gorgeous. What a subject, what a work of art.

All the best you two, this one needs to be printed Carol, it has to be, its the law :D :mrgreen: :wink:
