## Hello, everyone! 😎📷

That's my entry for the [Let's Make a Collage - A Contest for All Creatives on Hive - Round 227 - ✨20 HIVE in the Prize Pool!✨](https://ecency.com/hive-174695/@lmac/lets-make-a-collage-a-contest-for-all-creatives-on-hive-round-227-20-hive-in-the-prize-pool)

That's not exactly what I wanted to see in the base image, but that's the charm of collage. You start with a base, and as you add more pieces, the perspective of what the writer wants to say changes.
Everything that has happened here is a deformation in which each element has added its own story. But for a deformation to be a transformation it must, (probably) also contain a message. 
Could this one, on a sublime level, communicate something?

I believe the message is positive and optimistic :)

## The creation process

I created the collage using Photoshop.
As I mentioned, I used deformation on all the elements, including the background, and then I placed them in layers.
