Fractals F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Aug 27 11:19 am)
I like this flame comp a lot. I like the stark, wintery vibe of it and the "bridge" across the water. Hmmm...brickbats?...sounds like what Barry Bonds uses along with the "cream" to smash baseballs - lol. Seriously, the only things I'd change about it are maybe more clouds around the "Moon" so that it seems to cast a wider light and maybe move the reflection of the Moon a bit down and away from the bridge, which would be casting a shadow there. But that's VERY minor stuff. I like the creativity in putting this together a bunch - well did! Keep 'em comin! Rick
Rykk >> thanks for your comments. A brickbat is 'blunt criticism', but who is Barry Bonds and where does the cream come in? Quite agree about the moon reflection, will change that. Wasn't altogether happy with the cloud formation so will juggle with that a bit as well. ligt > thank you for your comments also. Your suggestion for a few stars is well founded and well observed - will see what I can come up with. Will post another WIP before it goes in my Gallery. Thanks again for your help. Dennis
LOL - yeah, I knew what a "brickbat" was, hence the suggestions. Barry Bonds is a guy who plays baseball in the US and hits lots of homeruns. The "cream" is the steriod compound some allege he's used to hit so many homers and he swears he didn't know it was illegal....sure... Your image is already pretty darn good - the next WIP oughtta be really great! Rick
Rykk >> Thanks for the explanation for Barry Bonds and his cream. By way of a coincidence Art Spander wrote in the Daily Telegraph this morning when reporting the 'American View' of sport in America during 2005, and I quote.......... "Barry Bonds, the San Francisco Giants outfielder mired in the BALCO controversy, as well as into the record books, had his own vanishing act. Accussed of steroid use, and in full denial, Bonds missed all but the last three weeks of the season due to knee surgery. Some conspiracy theorists suggested it was an easy way to avoid suspension, but Bonds' return in September, and his five home runs that left him six behind Babe Ruth's total of 714 disproved the idea" I suppose in Biblical terms he was 'sore afraid' of losing, so sore in fact that he had to put some cream on it!!! I've finished the winter scene (I hope) and will post the WIP in a new thread. ligt >> Thank you very much for the Title. I've decided to call it 'Winterwonderland' Dennis
