Honorable Mention
Almost Home
DESCRIPTION
This is a depiction of a young woman coming home after a long journey, seeing her warm cabin off in the distance. There is nothing in the world more welcoming than home. The background image and cabin photo were taken in British Columbia, Canada, the model is my lovely daughter, and all other elements were shot by me, including all textures and overlays used. AUTHOR
