I didn't realize the dinosaur diorama contest was early this year so I went through the trouble of making a diorama then realized it was to late afterwards. :( Not wanting to waste the effort I decided to post it here. 


"3,000 km to the south, the massive comet crashes into Earth. The light from the impact fades in silence. Then the shock waves arrive. Next comes the blast front. Finally a rain of molten rock starts to fall out of the darkening sky - this is the end of the age of the dinosaurs. The Comet struck the Gulf of Mexico with the force of 10 billion Hiroshima bombs. And with the catastrophic climate changes that followed 65% of all life died out. It took millions of years for the earth to recover but when it did the giant dinosaurs were gone - never to return." - WWD

To be honest I would have voted for it.  It's really good,  and I love the Iguanodon, this figure is the only one of the 2016 figures I currently own  and one of my favorites, you shot it in a nice way.

You should have saved it for next year's contest.

A really nice shot, especially for the light on the moss and the choice of the figure. Personally I would have removed the pine needles from the foreground to prevent any impression of false scaling, but that's just me.

I think those are lycopods, but I could be wrong.

Hmm, possible, thought it's some Polytrichum species, but I'm no expert on this.

On further inspection, I think you're right!

Seeing safari's iguanodon set so elegantly here has convinced me to get one for myself. It looks very naturalistic in this shot.
