Promises of life

Life is full of surprises, embrace the unexpected.
This collage was made as part of a challenge. It is based on a photograph by Marek Piwnicki, showing a Lunaria leaf.
The seeds are promising new life, which inspired me to mimic the leaf and seeds by lots of living creatures. You will find fish, flowers, lions, nudibranch, dolphins, birds, mantis, moth, algae, corals and a tree.
The second picture also shows the origal photograph.
