March contest ideas wanted

The Winter contest will go before the March contest but I'd like to settle on a theme soon so people will have a chance to shoot. I'll be posting the Submission thread around mid-March.

So let's get some ideas started!

I think we could be fairly loose in our interpretation of lions and lambs. Cats could qualify as lions. Babies could quality as lambs. That sort of thing.

Although I like the post processing idea. There's always interesting stuff when we do that. Might be fun to use both before and after.
