    Surreal and somewhat eerie - the layered approach works well!

    Hi, Ally
    Do you know what I like about you?
    you break the reality
    You place objects in the place where one would never expect to see them,
    you get them out of context
    and that is what creates the visual impact
    I'll tell you once again: I congratulate you!!!!!!!!!!!

    (Thanks for your kind comment, you make me blush)

      Ciao

In Japan, the crane is one of the mystical or holy creatures, and symbolizes good fortune and longevity. It has a fabled lifespan of a thousand years. An ancient Japanese legend promises that anyone who folds a thousand origami cranes will be granted a wish by a crane. After WWII, the crane came to symbolize peace and the innocent victims of war.
