The one above was just for fun This is my official entry for the month...I did say it was one of my favorite words, did I not?

"Every line means something."
Jean Michel Basquiat

Here's one I made earlier. Does that count. OK I called it peace, because to me solitude means peace, time out, time to think! BTW its a pure bryce render, no postwork except to add a signature

The greatest part of wisdom is learning to develop the ineffable genius of extracting the "neither here nor there" out of any situation...."

I saw the post in the Photography Forum and I had been working with this image just last evening getting it ready for a show tomorrow. So here is my entry. Magick Michael

Wonderful entries! Thank you for joining in.

I guess I better add one too. Poser 5 and photoshop.

Here's one from me :) Great subject! Vue d'Esprit 4.1 *The sky is a collage made out of 12 photos I took my holiday in Paris... Had to paint out half the city! Just where those rocks are, Sacre-Cour used to be :)* **Hope you like it!**

Well I'm new to Renderosity..visited before but never signed up. I hope this captures the challenge for the month. I thought in a way it captures the vastness of creativity you can harness when your working on that next project by yourself.

This is an old piccy of mine. The background is made in terragen and postwork done in PAINT SHOP PRO. I just wish this was real and I could go stay in the cabin for a while with my computer!

Here is an older render of mine that really suits this challenge. One set of footprints, a single gull and a girl. bobbystahr_imagine218 and a link as well cuz i think it may be a better resolution http://www.renderosity.com/viewed.ez?galleryid=310807&Start=1&Sectionid=31&filter_genre_id=0&MostWanted=Yes

Once in a while I look around,
I see a sound
and try to write it down
Sometimes they come out very soft
Tinkling light sound
The Sun comes up again

if I ride I like to be a longwolf [means you belong to no gang or club{good or bad}] just ride letting the wind blow around uou and the rubber meets the pavement. No care in the world and lost in a world of your own.

what you see is not what you know; it in your face

Solitude - Such an unheard of thing in my life, I really had to think about it! This was rendered inside Impulse's Imagine 3D program. The egg was made there. The female was posed in Poser and imported into Imagine. The background image is a deformed image from Hubble, which I twirled in Paint Shop Pro. Is my vision of "solitude" comforting or edgy... I'm not really sure.

Solitude...made in Bryce,then postworked in PhotoshopCS.

This one represents mankind cutting himself from his fellow souls trapping himself in solitude........the tears of god for this is not the way it was supposed to be

We're getting near the end... I see we've got erosiaart working on an entry yet.. so we'll give 'em another day or so.. but then we have to start the voting. If there is anyone else still working on one, hop to it and hit the render/print/save button :) Some awesome entries... and some new faces. :) Good luck everyone.

rimrunner..ever heard of procrastination?? :-) ok..ok..will put it up now..as it is.. got a crazy schedule...

solitude is me. inside of me. solitude is simple. solitude is peace and calm. solitude is being alone. Solitude is lonliness. solitude is happiness. solitude is who i am, what i want to be, to have, to own.

re: new faces..well there's 2 of us from the Imagine Gallery, thanx to a very kind invitation from dialyn at our forum. I will for sure, enter more of these, and in future actually do a complete new render,but this month as a new coordinator at Imagine3D, and as a working musician, have had little time.

Solitude is good. I like it! Loneliness isn't too good sometimes. But solitude is freedom and peace...and a little loneliness :) Nothing postwork just pure Bryce.

Hello everybody! Hope entries are still accepted... if not, I'll try the next time!!! I made this image a while ago, it was one of my first photoshop collages! To me solitude has many meanings and the words resonates like a poem...

Meditation on Solitude (The Jewel In The Lotus)

Fractals will always amaze me!

It's that time. :) Got our last minute entries in place... Please pick a 1st, 2nd and 3rd choice. I'll add all that up and then announce the winner on Monday the 31st. Good luck everyone, as always, great entries :)

Stonemason 2. erosiaart 3. osscreepy1

osscreepy1 2. ernyoka1 3. digitalgrey So many excellent interpretations on a theme! My first choice was easy, because the picture grabbed me the first time I saw it, and the impression hasn't diminished with time. The photographs were excellent examples on the theme. BPMAC's entry tore my heart to bits, but I didn't feel it was proper to vote for an artist no longer among us - I do appreciate the sentiment, though! All of the entries had a story to tell - this is a wonderful theme gallery!

1.zhounder (though not the prettest piece here,.. i think it goes with the subject the most) 2. stonemason (same as above.. and a tie in my mind.. but i had to choose) 3. chohole (this is tide with thomaskrahn for the nicest piece here I think.. but the others convay the mood/subject better) all these are great here and I'd like to choose them all :)

Hexagon, Carrara, Sculptris, and recently Sketchup.

Congrats, Stonemason :o) Great pic too.

Congratulations to everyone for the amazing results to this challenge. Anyone find it ironic that I missed the vote? Good grief! Stonemason was a great choice...kudos to the winners!

Cool!! :) I'd forgotten all about this tread,lol..was busy modelling the alley in the photo :)Big thanks to all who liked the pic. my vote (if I'd remembered ) would have been erosiaart(very stark & almost surreal image),& Ernyoka(an almost brutal realism..nearly brings a tear to the eye)lol ummm...now I have to figure out something for this month..give me a day to think about a suitable theme & see whats been done before. Cheers! Stefan

It looks like a real honey of a challenge. :)

i know its over but i still feel like posting i didn't know what to add for a backgroundso i left it blank this is my first time doing this so please dont hate

That's very nice, really. A pawn in solitude. Quite original.

Crooks, I would have tried for a park scene for the background. At least the table & a bench (or chair). Too bad you didn't get that done in time for the challenge voting, I'm sure you would have gotten at least a few votes. :) Here is to hoping you continue to enter the challenges and we see more great work from you. Thanks for posting.
