   CHALLENGE: Final Forestry
This year is the International  Year of Forests. So, to kick things off this year, you are challenged to  pixel a scene set sometime in the future, depicting the last remaining forest on Earth.
It may be a forest  preserved in an ancient history exhibit 5000 years from now; or maybe it's a forest that exists in such a remote location, that it has so far remained untouched by humans.
Anyway, I'm sure you guys can come up with better ideas; but your image should clearly show that it is Earth's final forest. If it is in any way  unclear, you should explain your idea in your description.

Canvas  size - Max 150 x 100. Either horizontal or vertical.

Colours -  Exactly 11.

Transparency - Optional.

Animation -  No.

	*Originally posted by lucas_irineu* Hey man, if you have enough skills to make an account, you can make pixel art too! Practice makes perfect. Everything takes practice.

	Cure, go finish that stuff man. To be honest I think all those are best than the one you currently submitted. So submit every one of those, and win all three places! Go, go go!
