  • Well that's just stunning.

    I also love the placement of the signature. Not easy to be cropped out but it doesn't draw your eye heavily at all. Just sits naturally in the flowers. Looks great!

    As weird as this is, I think this might be the first thing I've seen where I finally kind of see what people talk about with NFLD and Ireland looking really similar. Maybe the sort of dreamlike atmosphere sort of mimicks the foggy 'blurry' look this island seems to have, even without fog lingering.

    I love this <3

    Also, top tier username

    • Thank you so much for your kind words!!

      I haven't heard of the similarly between NFLD and Ireland before, but now I definitely wanna visit there as well - just absolutely loved the scenery in Ireland <3 (though to be fair, my impression of it is a little skewed, I didn't have a single bad weather or even foggy day during my whole trip there haha)

      • NFLD has a ton of similarities both in culture and geography. Similar but not. Just different enough to be special all on its own. There's one Irish comedian who said that NFLD is the only place he has to speed his accent UP to be understood. That everyone here has the same accent as the weird nutty uncle in Ireland. He's not wrong.

        Bad weather in nfld.... Hard to avoid unfortunately lol
