The morning strike had only missed by a few hundred meters.
Our time was running out.
The hour of retaliation was at hand.

You are an amazing artist. That is all I can say to you and it isn't enough... You have the rare ability to take my breath away...

I've never seen any other artist that masters the use of light, color and shadow in the way that you do! It's just... Spectacular!

You are an amazing artist. I rarely see such a picture... I just look at it, and it feels like i was right there, gazing out at these ruins so old they look organic, at this faraway settlement on the lakeside, bathed in shadow, at this... nondescript.. mass.. at the foreground, lol. and look, thats a dragon back there i swear! is it just a gargoyle ish sculpture or is it a real dragon? or is it just me hallucinating? I tell you, the mood that just comes forth from this pic is quite overwhelming.

Your pictures always contain things that look like other things. A distant flag might be a bird perched on a tree-branch. Shadows and reflections - you're never sure of what's real. Ambiguity. I love that.
