I traveled for the holidays and took two small, cheap puzzles with me. Managed to complete one, on the little hotel room table. The lighting for photos was terrible, except the few times I was able to get a picture using indirect ambient light in the morning.
It was my least favorite kind of piece cut- all the same shape, very little variation within that. I did enjoy the picture, with the animals and all the varied plant material. This one on a tree branch looks a bit like a croton to me:
The tigers were nice,
and I didn’t even see this spotted cat hiding in the ferns until I was putting it together. So that was a fun little surprise!
This plant looks familiar- might be the same species featured in the jaguar puzzle, not sure
In the end, two pieces missing- not bad for a used puzzle. I left it behind in the hotel room, hope someone else might enjoy doing it (and not mind a few missing pieces). Assembly below. Excuse the bad photoshop job, where I tired to adjust for glare across the picture (with mixed results).
