An interesting image that meets the challenge

Thank goodness for Hou Yi! A very striking image with an animated character of bright vibrant colours, it is not easily ignored! Ican imagine it tells the fable to those already familiar with it and with your explanation to those not familiar with such as I. I think I understand why you have chosen to include the structure but I rather wish the sun was on its own. But overall Gin Tay your image has impact, well done.


Thank you for your pointers. Well received.

When I saw my score plunging, I already knew that Chinese "Myth & Legends" are not popular with DPC members.

My feel, is that, DPC members should try to browse through other images which may not make it to the top, but to go through the story behind each image submitted.
