Freedom is not far. I intended to represent a girl walking above clouds
from one pyramid's top to another. This is a picture I took from a plane
a few weeks ago when I traveled to Italy. I also made the quick sketch.
If you wish, you can view a detail HERE

A tight rope performer walks among the clouds in this moonlit fantasy"
(Kerry McQueeney, The Daily Mail, Sept. 2011)

Update: See THIS VIDEO showing some 18 Pencil Vs Camera
images in progress (with a small animation and original music).

Freedom Is Not Far

A poem by Peter S. Quinn

Traveling to a strange star
Is in our hope and dream
Its freedom is not too far
In the space river stream

Clouds of hope there drifting by
Like white pyramids tops
Castles in the far-off sky
Never images stops

Walking on to the near moon
Our beginning steps where
But we will though be going soon
To stars everywhere

Flying across the space dim sea
To in between dark place
There is trance for you and me
The make-believe ways

Walking and holding balance
Is very hard to do
But if you have acquaintance
With dreams it's up to you

Clouds in our times travel
All's within our own stair
New thoughts in times marvel
Are soon all coming here

You are amazing. Your combination of photography and art never ceases to amaze me. You have no limits when it comes to the world of art and creativity. The blend goes together so well, I don't think I've ever seen such creativity on an art site such as dA. You capture the clouds in this perfectly and I wonder where you get such ideas. Flawless. Your simple yet amazing art is practically the next big thing. I see you in an art or photography career. Who knows? You may be the next Van Goh, modern style.

All of my luck and wishes to you,

This is like most of your other arts to my mind a masterpiece tres bien! But, the are some pro's and cons, lets start with the cons first:

Cons: The pyramids seem a bit off in this picture, they dont really blend in the whole picture, and the clouds could be rougher.

Pros: But again, the pyramids fit the story, and the originality of this picture amazes me. Really love the background you drew, with the plane, and the little planet, those combinations are perfectly fitted with the moon. and the woman, walking on the ropes, really gives an atmospheric feeling of walking above everything. It is really hard to achieve such feelings, and that's why this is a job well done.

Your imagination is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.

Inspiration can be found all around us, as with poems, have not read many poems. I enjoy the fact that you include them, it adds a little something more to your work, well for me. Very creative and a fave also, thanks for sharing your amazing talent.

wow lol!

I am not sure if someone has already asked but when you took that photo, was the moon really like that or was that added in?

Aside that question, this is such a stunning result. I love this dream like feel to it!
