Something for the Weekend - Part 207 - Dragon's Lair!

Thanks to everyone who took part in our oil can challenge, there were some great ideas and images.

 

I have @jane-e to thank for this weekend's challenge idea. The Chinese New Year for 2024 starts on 10th February, which is right in the middle of our fortnightly challenge period, and starts the 'Year of the Dragon' or more specifically the 'Wood Dragon'. So for this challenge, I bring you to the dragon's lair. It is up to you to show us whether the dragon is friendly or more sinister.

 

The “rules”:

  • Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry.
  • Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc.
  • Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”.
  • There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off, or bring a bit of humour and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!
  • The starter image is made available for you to use in this forum challenge only.

 

To download the image,  hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the top right.

Then, when the image opens in its own window, right click and choose “Save Image As/Save Target As” (or similar depending on your browser).

When posting back your image — please use the blue reply button in this first post and use the 'Insert Photos' icon at the top of the reply box. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry, then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.

 

Have fun!

 

Dave

That is clever thinking Trevor, putting the cave underwater and having a fire-breathing eel. Nice one ! 🙂

Bonus points for being the first (I think) to use a previous SFTW character this week, Dean. 🙂

It’s a historical house/shop sign from the Wien Museum’s collection, not my creation.
