This is my first upload....not sure how to do this? Image rendered in Bryce with post done in photoshop. Tips on uploading images welcome (i.e. file formats, what looks best at what size etc.)Thanks for viewing and all comments are very welcome...Image was made for Writer's challenge but I didn't upload right format and/or size. After I fixed it (I think) it wouldn't accept image... (I think it thought I was trying to enter twice...lol). Oh well maybe that was a sign that I'm not ready to share. I hope not so I decided to put it in my gallery. Thanks all for sharing their beautiful work and especially the how-to's and background info, a fantastic source of information and inspiration! ***A very special and warm thank you to Angela Hepola....without her love, support and assistance I might never have ventured into this wonderful place(Rendo). She is one who believed in me when I didn't. I have never thanked her properly...I still hope to someday...But if someday never comes I offer this meager apology... here as assurance I haven't forgotten all you did for me..... All my best!!....Rob ******************An abstract poem***************************** ***Please note this is just abstract ideas and words and not my personal views or beliefs.....This is just for entertainment purposes only!!!!!!And hopefully food for thought.......... Alone In The Dark Nestled in infinity A place too dark for eyes to see The loneliest place a thought could be These hallowed halls of eternity Is it lost with jealousy? But everything here belongs to thee There is no beginning nor an end No sense of purpose or a friend Only darkness my soul to rend I guess I'll have to make pretend Out of darkness is created a hell For parts and pieces to buy and sell Everything and nothing is here as well But who are you to tell? In countless ages, undying time A split occurs within a find Is it the light or darkness? It's not the time Ugly torment or a love so kind The alpha the omega it was later said Because if this is all than this could all be said How lonely must our Father have been To create a world so full of sin Alone in the dark duality's insane Nothing to lose nothing to gain Hate and love are one in the same Can you yet guess its name? How lucky you are to have something to lose Ask the darkness, it's got to choose Could love be happy now? To worship thee If this is all than none are free If that is gone than none shall see So in the darkness this party delights But holy wings must remain on crowded heights To look down upon all that is And to remember that we are His These concepts that are taught again Know you now if you can win? For this is everything, including sin Let there be light so this begins!
