Description
Somewhere, deep in space, very close to the Spackoine system, there exists a planet which orbits a star known as Uteienne. The planet is called in the language of the Elven Elders, Valinor-Ute.
The people of Valinor-Ute are a tall and fair Elven race, who departed their home planet eons ago, when it became clear that the other species inhabiting that world cared little for anything other than greed and warfare.
Although skilled in many technologies (they developed space travel thousands of years ago, and came to understand the folding of space - which allows them to travel throughout the universe with the speed of thought), these Elves always maintained a deep respect for the natural world, beauty, music and art. They are skilled warriors when the need arises, but they prefer to live in peace with all races.
Recently, the lovely Princess Josephine, lord and governess of the realm of Lunaria (a small but beautiful forested region in the northern hemisphere), has learned of the birthday of Lady UteBigSmile, an artist of great renown on a far distant planet called Earth. Lady Josephine has decreed a day of song and festivities to honor this day.
As the mists of morning rise from the fields and meadows, she dances the Dance of the Sacred Swords, to open the daylong festivities.
Happy Birthday, Ute! Hope you have a wonderful day filled with fun, food, and festivities. I hope the Lord and Master of Spackoine treats you to a nice dinner in one of the more elegant establishments in the great realm of Spackoine - a place where they actually wear pants once in a while!
I've dog-slapped my PayPal account yet again - who could possibly resist the fantastic prices on all that awesome DM stuff?
This image is a composite of two of DM's wonderful packages, Lully's Josephine freebie morph, a background photo by me, and a bunch of fantastic Photoshop brushes. Joephine's pose is from the Lavinia's Tale package by Pixeluna, and ChuckNepo, with a few minor adjustments by me.
I'm running behind on comments again.... Will try to get caught up tonight :-D

DM has been my favorite since I've become part of Renerosity... I saw the sale prices and cried over them (not really, there's other things to cry about - lol) I love all their fantasy structures. the lighting in this came out sweet, I like the evening setting. Happy Birthday Ute and cover your ears when Rene sings in that spacko voice - lol

The story is delightful and well projected to the real ute in a way. restaurant is reserved only the finest of guests "tenue correcte" (clothes) obligatory,no tutus or crap like that. no used or unused condoms on the floor no beef free spackoburgers no freaks with naked butts no sleaze or grunge in the envi toilets of the finest and cleanes soft toilet paper (not the sandpaper we use on a daily base gives the ass some respite for a day) i coild continue for hours on this rod but my man i have to make the dots on the i's in RW.

I love a good dedication, especially when it's a great image all by itself. I love the vivid brilliance of everything here, especially of the sky and the nicely otherworldly (or just wonderfully ancient)temple/cupola thing. The elegant character is quite fetching, and all around, this is a fantastic dedication to a fantastic artist here on Renderosity. This is great work all around and I'm happy to see it...also, a BIG Happy Birthday wish to Ute.

Wonderful! The intense shy mirroring the beautiful colors in the rest of it. You truly brought the focus to her with your lighting. Great, great job and a wonderful gift... and yes, I'm all weepy over their prices too. Want more, but I snuck in one or two. Beautiful work and a great story!

WOW Rod! Talk about a GREAT imagination! That's quite the story you built, despite having borrowed a bit from a few famous works. ; ) The BG image in this is STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL! The lighting in the render perfectly matches the photo too. Another superb work! But then, we would expect no less from the amazing RodS!
