Description

Back after another long hard month. More business travel overseas, although this time to Germany. Managed to experience my first Beer Festival (or Volksfest). So, to all, wishing you a hearty 'Prost!' Back to Bryce and some SF for this post. This image proved more difficult to finish than I first thought, and went through several re-works along the way. I think my muse left me for a short break during this one :) Many thanks to all who commented on my 'Artist Accolade' front page feature last month. Much appreciated!!!! I am still slowly getting there on IM's. Hope to be back to all shortly now. Comments welcome as always.

This is a great image, highly recommend a good look at the faces of the soldiers, you've captured the fear and horror in great detail. Excellent effects, a great render goes to my faves ^^

I like these action pics you do! You've captured a lot of motion and dynamics here. Poses and expressions are great, and the DOF is cool. You've managed to conceive and execute a pretty chaotic scene, fitting the subject matter.

Wonderful action scene. The lightly blurred background looks nice and helps the main characters to stand out. Beautiful soldiers. Great poses and expressions. It's a pity that Volksfest didn't make you forget about clothes. 8-) Fantastic job.

Great action scene Deane, the subtle blurry effect certainly adds to the sense of drama. The only pointer I would make is whether the girl on the left is just slightly overtwisted to blend with her bottom half. Apart from that, great work.
