Photo composite of three pics taken yesterday..... Here is the final, I'll post what I used right underneath this. Its just how I feel about life, and opening your mind up to everything. It is also the first purely 2d thing I've done in a long, long time. Syyd

Botanical House -- these were taken for Niko who loves the Botanical house, and edited in photoshop.

...I got the biggest grin in my face for weeks. I just adore that house. And ways you have threated it with Photoshop. Again, nothing to change, nothing to add, nothing to remove. Bunch of perfect shots. And I'm really glad to see you doing 2D stuff again. Thank you Sydder. .n

Great stuff, Syyd! Photos and composite alike. Question: What's that figure reflected in the eye? (*

Love this piece.....the building on itself is powerful enough. Not even need to throw in other things....great work =)

Love your composition, so much depth & impact, the eye makes the whole so intriguing. Great shots of that amazing building.

Thank you all, SOOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!! I was intensely intensely nervous about posting this. I've been having some sort of creative draught, and doubts about everything, and I wasn't sure what to do, but then I said, well, this is a piece of my soul. That Building is beautiful, when I go in there, I get lost for hours. I walk around it, clicking away, the flowers, the structure, the whole thing. I am going to go in at sunset and take a picture for you of the center dome inside out. I feel a lot better, thank you for your encouragement. Syyd
