Beneath the Surface

My very first shadow box! 

I've learned sooo much from this one - and yes I've made a lot of mistakes  

I started this one before I had my shadow box. I knew the measurements of the box and I made calculations and everything should fit perfectly! But... I thought the depth of the shadow box equaled the space I had to work with - it didn't. The measurements where made from the outside of the box so all of a sudden there wasn't room for the back to go on  

There was suppose to be a light inside the shadow box but there wasn't enough space anymore. So this one isn't going to have it's own light but it'll stand in the windowsill and get natural light. Oh well - the next one will have it's own light INSIDE the box! 

There is a small pond that one of the wolves is drinking from. I've actually made it so there should be a reflection of the wolf in the water. I found out that I had made too many layers and there isn't enough light that can get through so you can actually see the reflection. That's too bad - but now I know how to fix that! 

My photography skills aren't the best so I hope you can see it
