Hi guys - sorry in the delay of announcing the winners but there were many excellent contributions to plow through and we wanted to give enough time to evaluate all the great submissions.
So drum roll for our three winners:
First place goes to with Cat and Mouse which kept us not only at the edge of our seat, but added a different spin by including a very unique perspective of prey and hunter.
Second and third place is a tie between with The Forest and with Running Away.
An honorary mention goes to for Watchful Shadows.
