Here is my final entry for May's Challenge. I believe the Human Spirit is the strongest force there is in this universe. I believe that not even the acts of mother nature could destroy the true spirit of man or woman. I guess thats why I decided to portray a female in a wheel chair. What happened to her isn't as important as her desire to be able to dream and be happy again. She may never walk again, but she'll dream and laugh and celebrate with her friends again... And I guess thats the bottom line.. She has that uncontrollable force to live her life... Enjoy!

Nice render. It may be the camera angle but her scale seems to be a bit small in regards to the room and objects.

Pretty cool. (from a wheelchair user who is happy most of the time)

Cool. Thanks for your comments Aldaron/Jason... This image is more or less an homage to a friend of mine who recently lost the use of her legs... I cant imagine how difficult it must have been for her. But hey, thats life I guess. She seems happy and back to normal.. more or less..

Moving image, I know a few people in wheelchairs, one in particular is as busy and gets around as much as I do, and I'm a contractor. Again, Great Image & Perception.

Nothing else to say other than it's moving, deep and beautifully rendered. IMO, you caught the most powerful source of all. S.

The human spirit is a force to be reckoned with and that's for sure. This images conveys the emotions very well. (from one who has been losing the use of her legs over the last few months) Catlin
