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. ;)

I am a huge fan of B/W but mostly of duo-tones since the secondary colour adds greater depth and increases the range of the tones. I am however wondering if the darkening of the sky (if this was done in postwork) is a little too much, as I would lighten it just a tad, otherwise we have a fantastic classic photograph here. Have a great week. Thank you for sharing. egmont

would hate to repeat the above comments and only add that you've done a great work on the sky thus balancing the whole view.
