Description
Some Alchemists believed that the world was here to separate dark from light. Turning lead to gold was just a metaphor for this process.

Divinity is here...Ah, but if only man would realize that it is in the very necessary presence of both forces that balance exists, eh? Ahh, the script. What mystery unfolds from within. Absolutely splendid representation :)

What a fantastic composition, and really original thougts behind I love combinations of fractals and other objects, and this is a great example of that.

Magnificus! Like the ancient observation. Here is like the demonstrations that the fractals are like a system to create the Chaos(an ancient vision), and with the adherence of the machine system precision, shows that it can be prediced. A bright picture!

Excellent execution of the concept! From my artistic sensabilities, i would have cropped in tighter into the watch and thereby showing no background. Never the less, the concept and postwork are dead on. Thank you for sharing. egmont

Very striking image. Is the use of six points accidental or a deliberate reference to the "as above so below" motif? The gears work in well with the text and "lighting". Prompted by cameraobscura2 I cropped the image to the edge of the watch - did not look good. Cropped to the inside of the watch (no "edge showing at all) it looked excellent. Overall a very well executed composition.

amazing concept. should be patented immediately!

Stunning image and your concept is wonderful. If we could all do this, what a wonder. I suppose that's why alchemy was a "skill" ;) Great work!

It is true, without lie,
and very true that what is in bottom is as what is in top,
and what is in top as what is in bottom:
for the achievement of the wonders of the single thing.
And just as all things were done of only one,
by the mediation of only one,
thus all things were born from this same single thing, by adaptation.
The Sun is his/her father, the Moon is his mother;
the Wind carried in its belly and the Earth is its nurse.
It is the father of universal the telesme whole world.
Its power is whole when it is metamorphosed out of ground.
You will separate the ground from fire,
subtle the thick one, with delicacy and an extreme prudence.
It assembles ground to the sky, and derechef it goes down out of ground,
and receives the force of the things of in top and of bottom.
