 I have seen a few terrible motivational posters in my time. I wanted to focus on making a funny quote with a pretty picture that didn't fit the topic (like so many motivational posters I've seen). If i can bing out a smile.. then I don't ask for anything else!

Nice picture. The caption is not all that motivational though. The text on the smaller writing would be easier to read with either a heavier font or a lighter color on the black background.

Fun quote and very nice layout, but the photo isn't motivating me whole lot. Don't get me wrong, it's lovely (maybe slightly oof on the droplet, but great bokeh), it's just that I don't feel a connection between the image and motivation.

interesting take on the challenge, I see alitlle irony here... Don't think text and image (nice one) work together.
