Thank you for the supportive words, Alex and Cheryl! This image is very similar to a previous one in my gallery, but I changed the reflection a bit. (I wanted this guy to appear as if he had just touched the water.)
These polar bears have just captivated me over the past week... I'm having such a fun time in my digital playground!
Blessings, Lisa

I must have commented on the previous version of this--I remember seeing it, and how much I liked it! I can't decide which of your two January faves I like best. I guess I'll have to say I hope they BOTH win!! :D Good luck, my friend! #5519127
