Winter Wonderland Scene in Whimsical Watercolor Style

Lovely happy kids playing in the snow

Thanks all for playing.  I'll run the challenge again after the holidays.

Hey shutterbugs! Big shoutout to everyone who jumped into **Photorealistic Challenge #40** -- and major congrats to the winners!

Once again, the entries were top-notch, and that's a win in my book.

Just a heads-up: **photorealism is the main thing you gotta focus on when voting.** To keep it real: if an image is stunning but looks like a painting, it can't and shouldn't get a high rating.

With that said, here are my top picks (only advice, of course!) for photorealism models among the many made available by NightCafe: Flux (all), Imagen (all), RealViz (all), Fluently (all), Juggernaut (sp. 9 and XI), Stable Core.

So, have a blast and stick around because we'll be kicking off  again soon!

Peace Love and Many Cameras,

Advanced vehicles glide along the threads like threads of destiny being woven.
