Question

Guys, what's the meaning of the 'edge'?

Is it the place outside the forest, like we're on the top of the cliff & see the forest below or just wherever?

I googled it & found some picture of empty space/area near the forest. Like a river bank that has a background of the forest. That's the meaning of Forest's Edge?

Yeah I think you got it. For some reason I immediately thought of the scene in LoTR when the gang is going into that forest where the ents are. There is a distinct edge where the trees start.

Thumbs up

@ andantyn0, thanks for the kind reply, buddy. I, TOO, imagine the concept of LoTR in my mind. But suddenly, I remember about another else such as Narnia and then traveling far-far away into Dagobah from Star Wars.

Anyway, I'll post my works soon. But I'm afraid that's a long time ago works, not my currently project & I'm totally disagree with myself whenever I want to post it against someone who really make the piece start from 0.

Maybe I'll post more than just one image to this contest, the old ones & the new ones; because I love nature themes above it all.

*cheers*

Not sure if "edgy" enough but when I saw the theme for the first time, I was probably 60-70% done with it so... Yeah.
