Last month we had a totally open theme for our AR showcase, and you blew us away with your gorgeous work! I debated on the theme for this month for a little while before settling on something fairly open, the great outdoors.

‘Roaming’ by Ash Ketzchup, Canary Islands.
‘Exploring the world with my buddy!’
‘Sausage Doggo’ by kittypokemonsalot, UK.
