Hello Hivians,
Don't you think too that the little crab in @shaka's template photo somehow looked like a kind of adventurer? The heroic look, the cool and comfortable posture ...?
But maybe it was just my imagination that confused me a little. At least I knew roughly what kind of adventures this little guy must have had.
So, as always, a little story first ...
Once upon a time there was a little crab. More specifically, he was a lobster named Frank.
Frank was always bored and so day in and day out he looked for one or the other adventure. Quite often he put himself and others in danger.
One morning, when the seagulls were flying out to sea to catch fishes, he carefully swam under a water lily and waited for a seagull to sit on it to rest. As soon as a gull sat on it, he squeezed the bird's neck and looked deep into her eyes.
"Listen! This is a kidnapping. If you don't make trouble, you can get out of this situation very well.", Frank said in a deep and confidently sounding voice.
The seagull replied ... "Arrgl ... What do you want?"
"I just want to fly. I've always wanted to see what everything looks like from up there. So take off! QUICKLY!!!"
So the gull clutched Frank between her feet and took off.
Frank again and again had extra requests. He forced the seagull to fly everywhere he wanted and he even let the seagull fly a dangerous loop. He thereby continuously held the gull's neck with his scissorhands.
After several hours of flight, the gull ran out of power.
"Please, let's take a break. Haven't you had enough?"
Frank refused the request. "I am the boss and so I decide when we're done or when we need a break."
To emphasize his statement, he squeezed her a little harder with his scissorhands.
In the meantime, after a few minutes, Frank had completely forgotten that he was still squeezing her hard.
Suddenly they were flying faster and faster towards the ground. The ground was getting closer and closer.
"Hey gull!!! What are you doing? Uh... Why do you have such an empty gaze? Nooooooooooooo......"
Unfortunately, we do not know how it ended. Except for one thing ... Frank never spoke again.
My collage
This is my contribution to the LMAC contest this week.
LMAC is a great community for artists of all skill levels. The name of the community is an abbreviation and stands for "Let's make a collage". Just take a look. Even if you think you are not an artist, LMAC will probably prove you wrong.
Current round: LMAC Contest Round 74.
Materials
My collage contains parts of multiple images. I took a few of them from Pixabay. The images there are free to use.
I also painted the eyes of the two protagonists and the movement effects by hand. The seagull, the background and the lobster also had to be re-exposed by hand.
