Jausse: Is'nt it strange that my first impression was one of war. I think first impressions are very important. Now that you have called your wonderful work 'The Race' I 've re-examined both and yup! There it is - A group of flying machines racing. And no, there are no energy beams hitting the lead ship. So why did I think 'WAR' when I first saw your work? The explanation is simple. I am expecting war, I see it everyday in the news and in the world all around us. What I should have seen in your work was peace and (perhaps)friendly competition. We all see different things in different ways, and perhaps my first impression was unfair...However, it is still a fine piece of work and I look forward to more of the same. The Bryster (Chris)
