Description

This image has been in my head for ages, but it was Vee's cyclist that finally showed me a possible way out... Strongly influenced by album cover designer Storm Thorgerson (Hipgnosis), animator Terry Gilliam and cartoonist Kliban, who all permanently bent my brain. Thanks! Terrain created in GeoControl 2, Vue 7.4 Infinite, cropping and signature in PSP. Craig

An excellent bit of surrealism, Craig. Love the 'foothills comment above, though. 'Road to Nowhere' is one of my favourite songs too. In some ways, this image reminds me of David Byrne... and the Talking Heads, generally.

Great job on lighting those screens. I love the feet and can identify right now. That woman's expression is priceless. Love the Monty Pythonesque quality. Not a word? Should be. Good design and surrealism combined with humor and poignancy always gets a fav from me.
