Viewfinder from Bradenton, United States
The lighting make is seem sort of extra-planetary, as if this were a scene from some space colony with a different sun or something. Cool!

Ace one, dear friend. Love it, especially the shapes and grid shadows here. Beautiful treatment as always. Truly artistic and refreshing at the same time. Wow.

The Amazing Kevin from Cleverville, Australia
It's definitely surreal. Looks like something straight out of a Hollywood blockbuster where some psychotic teenager is about to run rampantly through the 'burbs. The shadows in the foreground add a touch of spice to the scene. Well done. :)
15 Oct 2007 11:08pm
@The Amazing Kevin: You are extremely kind. Your nice comments keeps me going
