Well done! Difficult solve (3 hours) but completely workable, and a satisfying image at the end of it all. Super use of the white in the pretty bower. More, please -- and if you make them a little easier, that would be fine too ...

Very well done Peter,if you take a really good look at this puzzle you will see a lot of great detail and some really cool things,for instance,the house has twin peaks and the chimney is in clouds(cool),great picket fence following the lay of the land(also cool),house overlooks lake(nice),pond before fence with ducks in a row(love it),great foliage which makes it look like the scene is being viewed through an arbor(to me anyways).All in all this is a wonderful puzzle and an incredible first effort. Thanks and yes please make more.:)

Really nice image - a long solve but a very satisfying one. Thanks!

Yup. Same as the above. This is an absolutely amazing first puzzle. I don't write much and you got me to write.

Fantastic first puzzle. This is such a beautiful image. The solve was a little tedious with all the single pixels around the edge. But lovely in the end. Perhaps one like this would be more pleasant to solve in a 40x40 grid to avoid having to scroll so much.

You obviously have an artistic talent, so I look forward to more puzzles you might create. :-)

Probably a great puzzle that took a tremendous amount of work. I just got tired of it as the puzzle was so big that I was constantly moving the window around. Keeping the puzzle to 40 or 45 on either the length or width would make it much more enjoyable.
