love the use of the white space which makes a beautiful and difficult puzzle

trickier than expected, pretty picture

Difficult with wonderful result!

That branch took me forever! Well worth the time :)

Thanks - nice puzzle :)

hurrah!

Beautiful! Worth all that hard work! Ironically, though, that branch wound up being the easiest part, once I got started.

It was really tricky.

nice

Great, difficult puzzle with a wonderful payoff.

very pretty, thank you

I agree with others, slightly more difficult to do which made it very interesting. Beautiful image end result.

Difficult challenge, but the result is great! It's one of the best pictures I came across.

Thank you!

Nice use of blank squares. 54 minutes to solve.

Gorgeous picture, thank you!

wow lovely~~ easy~

That was a great challenge!

lovely design , well done , thanks

Such a pleasure !

Beautiful. and just the right level of tricky. But I think there is an ambiguity. There are a pair of grey "1" cells that need to go into the opposite corners of a rectangle (rows 2 and 6, columns 14 and 24). I have the rest of the puzzle done; there does not seem to be a disambiguate between the final two choices.

sweet!

Brilliant and beautiful!

Great!

Beautiful and atmospheric!

So very cute!
I had trouble with the brown and black part. The darkish blue was almost easy compared to that.

I liked your use of little random blocks in the white space. Made the puzzle a lot more interesting to try to solve.
