I finished the image and added my watermark to the bottom right hand corner, then posted the image on my Facebook page and shared it in a dinosaur meme group I’m in, where it got a few hundred likes. I also made an even more bizarre version, mainly just trying to be a surreal as possible:Ī few weeks later, in early December, I saw my image on my laptop, and finally thought of a good caption.
