Any suggestion ?

It is a beautiful work.
About your next project.... I don't know... I would personally love to stitch a portrait of my favourite poet. Perhaps you have someone you really respect, or maybe a character from a favourite book or movie... something like that. Also, one of the cross stitch magazines (I am not sure which) regularly publishes portraits of famous actors and actresses. Perhaps the others will know what I am thinking of.

Lovely work and I would suggest the same as others choose a picture or character that you like and turn that into your next project.

That is one of the best photo adaptations I have seen. Great job on a nice finish!
No advice on your next project - but will certainly look forward to the progress photos.
