My real name is Andrew, and I'm thirtysomething, living in Yorkshire, England. I work as a gardener at a large country house. BIOI've drawing and painting ever since I can remember, usually fantasy or sci-fi subjects but I'm not averse to doing the occaisional landscape or whatever else pops into my head. I'm also a keen photographer and having just moved to digital this has opened up all sorts of possibilities!
I tend to do most of my work on the computer now, rather than on paper, using Truespace for the 3D stuff and Photoshop for everything else.
When I'm not being creative at the computer I'm heavily - and I mean 'heavily' into astronomy! Most clear nights will find me outside with my telescope (a computer controlled 10" dob) until the small hours of the morning! I haven't got into astrophotography yet, but it's on my to do list!
As you may have noticed I'm influenced/inspired by the following artists/musicians:
Rodney Matthews
Salvador Dali
Hieronymous Bosch
Chris Achilleos
Boris Vallejo
Clannad
Iron Maiden
Mike Oldfield
Jean Michel Jarre
Kate Bush
Vangelis
And many,many more. ;)

Very nice detail. I like this type of photograph.

Very interesting closeup. May I suggest you some technique to improve this kind of picture if you can (which presumes that you can find a little time for that and nobody comes to disturb you) First take a tripod (even a light one, if it is not sufficiently heavy, release the shutter by means of the selftimer). Take a first pict with the foreground in focus. Then another one with the zone just behind it in focus. A third one with the distant point sharp. Then assemble these three shots in Photoshop or Photoshop Elements by wiping the blurred areas of the separate Layers (if the different parts of the photo do not match exactly, do the assemblage using Opacity function, e.g. 60% opacity for the above-situated Layer, so you are seeing by transparency what matches between the different Layers). Then you are sharp on a depth much higher than if you do a single picture only!
