Quite a few threads back I threatened to dig out some of my old 'surreal' images.... this was my first post of that kind, and one of only two that I now feel are good enough to post. (Haven't found the other one yet). Even now I can only find the JPG's and can't find the original potatoshop files. Hope you's like. (",)

I do like! I agree with Cyn, but it also reminds me of the work of another photographer...Jerry Uelsmann! http://www.uelsmann.net/ He taught photography at UF when I was a student there back in the early 90s and his work had a Big influence on me. More amazing still was it was all done in the darkroom, no digital manipulation!!! You probably saw his work on the revived Outer Limits opening credits from some years back. cool image and postwork!

Nice work - makes for interesting image - I don't really 'get' most surreal works :)

And every one said, 'If we only live,
We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'
Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to sea in a Sieve.

TooPee - Strangely enough, Uelsmann was one of the artists I was into at this time. Along with Dali and Giger (Always loved his works, his influence is SO apparent in lots of my 2D stuff) Cyn, Onsy, Cheers ;-) If it's any consolation there's nothing to get - I just got a few pictures that would go together and mixed them.... if you want to give it a spiritual / sociological / pathological meaning, feel free..... rofl (",)
