I think it's truly impressive! However, I did notice that in the initial image, it appeared to require some editing work, but all things considered, it looks fantastic.

Hey there! I just wanted to say congratulations on making the front cover of the BAA journal. It looks great! I did notice that in the first picture, it looked like it could use a bit of editing, but overall it's really impressive.
I'm new to this forum, but I wanted to chime in and say that I recently discovered literary magazines where you can submit your own articles. It's a great way to get your work out there and potentially even make it onto the cover of a publication like the BAA Journal.
Again, congrats on your accomplishment, and keep up the great work!
