Motionless, the bounty hunter awaited for his pray.
He had become one with the forest.
His breath was as the whisper of grass, and his cloak had merged with the landscape.
Moonlight and the wind played with the timeworn forest as the trees creaked and whispering among each other,
Living their own life, one thousand times slower then the hunter's breath.

Just as nature's life, the hunter's patience knew no boundaries,
For only a single shot was needed to change the events of the world,
As a single individual has the power to wield billions.

I like the decripyion as much as the pic. the power to wield billion... you make it sound as though he alreday knows this man will wield armies, is time travelling involved?

Nice. My new favourite. You have a way of making images look so realistic. Your detailing is some of the best I've ever seen here at Elfwood. It actually looks rather serene.

The silence, and the coldness, and lack of emotion in the sniper's posture and clothing add up to a really great picture.
